Quitters

I feel like I am surrounded by quitters. And crazy people.

Well, not immediately surrounded ... but my life is engulfed with them.

Tim and I got some upsetting news this morning about yet another family member who will be getting divorced. These are particularly "close" family members, as were the last two we heard about, so I am truly upset about the situation.

I mean, what ever happened to "til death do us part?" "In sickness and in health?" "In good times and in bad?" Do these people not remember that they stood before GOD and promised to stay together FOREVER???

Lord knows Tim and I have had our rough patches. Yes, plural. We've been "together" for 16 years, so naturally we have had our own growing pains through our journey together. But we are still in it for the long haul. And the fact that others don't view their marriages the same way really disturbs me. You can't just throw away those years ... and in this case it is 20+ years. I mean, what was the point? Really?

So I'm upset.

And even more devoted to making sure Tim and I WORK ON KEEPING IT TOGETHER.

S and T ... I love you both and I hope you come out stronger after all of this!!
