Everything

This is such a true saying.  So many people want to fall in love and get married for what they can get out if it.  Reasons like not being alone anymore, someone to talk to when your down, a permanent date for functions, not eating by yourself, someone to rub your back when it aches (OK, Linda admits to entertaining this last one a few times.)  It's all the wrong reasons in her book.  Getting married is about being ready and willing to give everything.  What bought all these thoughts of marriage up?  Linda's Uncle Bob (her Mom's brother) sent her a package today of really old photos of her parents.  He was cleaning and found an old album.  There were photos from when her parents were first married right on up to their grave stone.  It just got her thinking of how wonderful they were together and how many years they were happily married.  It was truly "Until Death Do You Part."
