I married a strong woman not to take from me but to enhance me. I married an intelligent woman not to challenge me but to encourage me. I married a woman to have children with not to just have *** and run away. I have been married for 36 years this year, sometimes life has been hard, but having the love of a good woman has pull me through the tough times. God blessed man with woman to be his equal, his mate and his lifelong love. My wife has been a blessing to me and continues to be an important part of my life.
