things that made u happy today

[Nick Meanswell]

My Gran and Grandad were together till death do us part. They had over 60 years together. Sadly none of their children have managed a successful marriage.

I think the hectic lives we lead these days are to blame, plus I think there is much more of a culture of changing things if you're not happy with the prevailing situation, rather than trying to sort things out or at least ride out the storms. Of course I suspect in the days of your grandparents divorce was something only rich people did. Everyone else just had to get on with their lives, and make the best of things.

Tolerance is something that's in surprisingly short supply these days. If we could all accept each other, warts and all, and celebrate the good things about each of us instead, the world would be a happier place.

I know I've done some bitching about my homelife on here, but in a sense, having this outlet, and all you lovely supportive people, has made me realise things could actually be a lot worse. It's a lot cheaper and more fun than crappy counselling too!!
