People don't get married to get divorced. Maybe people weren't meant to be together forever.
Living with anyone for many years takes skill. To keep peace in the household, couples learn to adapt to one another, hopefully in positive ways.
To each other, we were as normal and nice as the smell of bread. We were just a family. In a family even exaggerations make perfect sense.
Well, because we're so different as people. And it's that difference that probably also makes it easy to stay together, because we don't get in each others way.

We were born with a capacity to grow, love, marry, and form families.
