Marriage Ain't No Picnic - Paperback

by Carol Hrehovcik (Author)

"I talked with an older woman who has been married almost fifty years and asked her secret. 'Choose your battles, ' she said, 'and know when to keep your mouth shut.' Good advice I thought, but that is only one answer.
The trick is to work at it always. You can never rest from working at your marriage. Just as you accept the fact that you are a parent forever, you must believe this marriage is also forever . . .
So I offer this book, no, I dedicate this book to anyone who has the curiosity, the courage, and the desire to stay married. Read it for yourself, not because I am rich or famous or remarkable in any way. Read it because I am just like you; doing the best I can, wanting to do it all better and believe that after all Love really is the answer.
In the end I hope you'll say to yourself: 'If she can do it, so can I.' And you know what? You can."
