Marriage is about getting through the tough times.
"The secret to a long-lasting marriage is there is no secret at all. It's about knowing that nothing is going to turn out perfect, that your marriage won't be a highlight reel because that's not real life. It's about being deep in the trenches of so many obstacles that life could throw you and getting to look over and know that you aren't alone and that your best friend is walking it with you. It's about knowing that you can never be prepared for the burdens you might have to help your partner carry, but you do know you are willing to be there when they need rest from the burden." — Facebook user Nikki Pennington
