I do admire the guys that have found a truly great wife. I suppose my error was in my younger years I always went after the Extra Fancy Looking Gals....took me way to long to figure out if there Fancy looking and still single...might be a reason.
  Now I'm older and took up pipe smoking(rarely) I found out smoking a pipe can turn one in to a philosopher.
  Now I think of those Fancy gals a lot like Grizzly Bears....there beautiful to observe in the wild, might even be fun to wrestle with one ....but when it comes right down to it, you wouldn't want one living in your house with you.

(Disclaimer) I do believe there are Some good gals out there, but just like hunting Unicorn, it can get mighty wearysome.

I feel like one of the lucky blessed guys, this Bear found himself a terrific Mrs Bear 

Same here Jim , I married way above my character & intelligence level, I never doubted from very early on that God had his mighty hand completely around this union.

Congratulations Bruce, your post reminded me of this verse:

Ecclesiastes 4:12: Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.

The husband/wife team is more rare that both parties are "down" at the same time, so they prop each other up...but if the 3rd strand IS God....why then the state of Union IS Strong even if the husband/wife team is  "down" at the same time....you can Still rest easy.
