Some grandparents will agree that marriage in their time although required a lot of work, they managed to pull it off seemingly effortlessly. Although there were some unsuccessful unions, the rate of success was more impressive than the norm today.

She had these few unforgettable quotes that some couples and singles could really use.

Marriage is two forgivers living together. A successful marriage takes hard work and commitment. Conflict is inevitable in marriage, but the only person responsible for how you respond to is you.

Stop looking for the right person, focus on being the right person

Don’t let your painful experiences define you.
