Siggy's Blurbs: Siggy's Edge of Country …

My wife had to remind me I am not always good at listening. I can go on and on with my own agenda and not respond to the other party. Thank God for mates! They sometimes can remind us of our faults. There is no doubt a person wants a mate who is not a yes person. Can you imagine how boring it would be if your mate acquiesces to every thing? Thank God for mates who tell you the truth and can also do it gently. We are all flawed and a good wife is worth her weight in gold.

To some extent, choosing a good wife (or does she choose you?) is by serendipity.  Certainly a quarrelsome wife can drive you crazy.  There is no doubt some fits are better than others but commitment is the most important factor in the success of a marriage.  It is the glue that keeps it together.  It enables you to ride out bad times and each marriage has their share of rough moments.  The next is, maybe, good communication between both partners.  It is the ability to talk out everything.  A good marriage reduces your stress at home.  God knows you get enough outside the home.  Mutual respect goes a long way.  Working out difficult issues keeps you together.  Proverbs says a good wife is worth their weight in gold.  I have no doubt of this truth so value a good woman.  And do not let her go.
