My dad?s parents were married 55 years when his mom died and my mom?s parents had been married for 50 when her dad died. Things are different now. People are very intolerant; the slightest flaw they discover in each other, and they nuke the relationship. Our culture is badly ill, and in such a culture, marriage is a bad plan. I still don?t see how inviting the state into your relationship is of any benefit to anyone, even if you stay together for life as you and your husband (and my grandparents and parents) have done. -- Chris Crawford Fine Art Photography Fort Wayne, Indiana 260-437-8990 http://www.chriscrawfordphoto.com My portfolio http://www.facebook.com/pages/Christopher-Crawford/48229272798 Become a fan on Facebook On 6/30/15, 5:32 PM, "LUG on behalf of Tina Manley" <lug-bounces+chris=chriscrawfordphoto.com at leica-users.org on behalf of tmanley at gmail.com> wrote: >Tom and I will be celebrating 49 years of marriage in January.
