Illustration- Europa’s fairy book (1916)
Your great-grandparents were not perfect.
Sometimes your great-grandmother got moody during and after pregnancy, and when finances were tight your great-grandfather was moody too. And as you know, there were times they didn’t look, smell, or think too well. But that didn’t make them want to ‘break up.’
Their secret?
They didn’t have a secret, nor did they need much help being married. But they also never would have needed to ask what marriage is for.
When your great-grandparents got married they knew what that meant. And after getting married they never questioned whether it was the right decision, and never considered other options- not even in fantasy.
The reason your great-grandparents are awesome role models for marriage is because they surrendered themselves to the sanctity of their relationship.
