What’s the secret of a long marriage?

I think Maria is spot on. When you think about it, most of life is just okay. We're busy working, paying for braces, keeping kids alive, and attending all their events. It's not all one big party, but some people act as though it should be. So, when it's not, they leave a perfectly good job, divorce, break up, or otherwise attempt to find nirvana.

Then they find that the grass isn't always greener and start the cycle over again.

As we said in the South, TLM is "et up with common sense."
