The best is yet to come.

 

A good example preaches a powerful sermon.

 

Lord, please help me to be the person my dog thinks I am.

A government big enough to give you everything you want is a government big enough to take from you everything you have. (Gerald Ford)

LOVE TOP OF PAGE

MARRIAGETOP OF PAGE
 

Being pregnant is not a good enough reason to get married.

RELATIONSHIPSTOP OF PAGE
 

Rall Ayers said, "If you get in trouble, come to me. I'll do everything I can to get you out of it, and tell you how stupid you were. If you go to your mother, she'll do everything she can to get you out of it, and find someone else to blame."

 

A perfect wife is one who doesn't expect a perfect husband.

 

Listen to your wife bemoan what befell her. Do not offer solutions unless she asks for one. Women need to vent in order to think.

 

Give your husband a "cave" in which to think, to mend, or to be hurt or angry.

 

Never make a scene in public with your spouse and/or children. Private matters should be private. Would you want your boss to reprimand you at work before others?

 

If you think your wife seems depressed, you ask her if anything is wrong, and she says, "No," ask again. If you walk away after the first, "Nothing is wrong," she may become angry and think you don't care.

 

If your husband seems depressed, you ask him if anything is wrong, and he says, "No," do not ask again. He doesn't want to talk about it.

To get more out of life, give more of yourself!

 

A grudge is a heavy thing to carry.

 

We are emotional beings pretending to be rational.

 

You are known by the company you keep.

 

Good friends are like stars; you don't always see them, but you know they are always there.

 

Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends will. Stay in touch.

 

To the world you may be just one person, but to one person you may be the world.

SEX BEFORE MARRIAGETOP OF PAGE
 

A girl who has sex before she is married is taking a chance on ruining her reputation, hurting her parents, and getting pregnant. What is the boy giving up?

 

Getting a girl pregnant means 19 years of child support.

 

Pregnancy may mean the end of education and only low-paying jobs in the future.

 

Before you are married and you are with someone you love, it is your responsibility to see that you are not in the right place, at the right time, with the right person.
