On Married Love by Candida Lycett Green

And then after my slightly cynical bouncing ball theory of marriage, there's this lovely piece by Candida Lycett Green, who died today.

The entire piece is here at her website.

Extraordinary. Beautiful. Yes: "When you are fresh in love, how can you know for absolute certain that this person you feel utterly at home with and want to spend the rest of your life with will not, at some later stage, try and control your life, turn nasty, abandon you or all three? How do you know for certain that your own feelings will not shift? The answer is you can’t know. If a marriage works, it’s down to luck, timing and effort."

Perhaps it would be more appropriate to post link to Candida's website rather than reproducing article without permission? From a friend of Candida's.

Hello everybody, I am Mr Barry ,currently living in canada,I am a married man at the moment with two kids and i was stuck in a financial situation by august 2012 and i needed to refinance and pay my bills for my son medication. I tried seeking loans from various loan firms both private and corporate but never with success,and most banks declined my credit. But as God would have it, i was introduced to a Man of God a private loan lender by a friend named Mr. James and i got a loan sum of $10,000USD and today am a business owner and my kids are doing well at the moment. So dear,if you must contact any firm with reference to securing a loan with low interest rate of 2% and better repayment plans and schedule,please contact Mr. Stanley Kings he doesn’t know that am doing this but am so happy now and i decided to let people know more about her,he offers all kinds of loans to both individuals and company and also i want God to bless him more. You can contact his company through this email godiaandsonscompany@gmail.com

DR JOHN SOCO is simply the best spell caster and helper. My name is Precious Kurlan, Out of respect for you and your spells I must make this testimony know to all. I've been to other spell casters without seeing any result.I just wished I came to you earlier, i got the best from you. My ex husband was gone for a year and I went everywhere and other spell casters for help but no result until my friend introduce me to Dr John Soco After the Love Spell was done, I finally got a calls from him in 24 hours like DR JOHN SOCO assured me. His spells worked wonders and my husband is back with full of love. It's a miracle! He suddenly came back with flowers saying that i should forgive him, i was truly flabbergasted and shocked when my husband kneel down begging for forgiveness and for me to accept him back. I'm really short of words and joyful, you are a God sent to me and my entire family. And now i am a joyful woman once again.
