There's not a lot of room anymore for what I call 'made-up' drama. The drama comes from real places now - marriage takes work and focus the kid stuff takes patience and commitment. And if you don't grow as people and as a couple within all of that then you've got some real drama.

I think there are some people in life who are not marriage material and Chris is one of them.
There are powerful emotions that bring two people together in wonderful harmony in a marriage. Satan knows this and would tempt you to try these emotions outside of marriage. Do not stir emotions meant to be used only in marriage.
I think I'm a combination of very simple pleasures and the fact I've read a lot of books. I don't think it's a binary opposition across the board in humans and I think I'm an example that it's not.
