Finding true love

We’ve had several fall weddings and are also celebrating our own anniversary, so I’ve been thinking a lot about marriage. It’s a monumental moment, two people walking down the aisle to say their vows. There’s plenty of jokes about marriage:

• “I love being married. It’s so great to find that one special person you want to annoy for the rest of your life.” —Rita Rudner
• “Before you marry a person, you should first make them use a computer with slow internet to see who they really are.” —Will Ferrell
•  “Love is blind; marriage is the eye-opener.” —Pauline Thomason
• “Love is a two-way street constantly under construction.” —Carroll Bryant
• “Love is a lot like a backache; it doesn’t show up on X-rays, but you know it’s there.” —George Burns

But there’s lots to take solace too:

•  “My most brilliant achievement was my ability to be able to persuade my wife to marry me.” —Winston Churchill
• “A happy marriage is a long conversation which always seems too short.” —André Maurois
• “We’re all a little weird. And life is a little weird. And when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall into mutually satisfying weirdness–and call it love–true love.” —Robert Fulghum
• “Marriage is a risk; I think it’s a great and glorious risk, as long as you embark on the adventure in the same spirit.” —Cate Blanchett
• “A simple ‘I love you’ means more than money.” —Frank Sinatra
• “Love is a friendship set to music.” —Joseph Campbell

That’s it, that’s the post. Just a few jokes and then a few inspirational quotes — no matter where you stand in your life.

Hope you have a great day!
