Dear young people, don’t be afraid to marry. A faithful and fruitful marriage will bring you happiness.

It's true... my bride of nearly 33 years brings me complete happiness... Happy Valentine's Day baby... and thank you.
UPDATE: Moments after posting, I come across this Nancy Pelosi missive on marriage:
“But I would say, you know, if you’re getting married -- why are you getting married?" Pelosi asked. "Why would you get married? Why would anybody get married? In that the person that they love so much, that was irresistible, that they had to get married?”
Pelosi then articulated her theory. “I’m not a big one for rushing people into marriage as wonderful and happy as mine was,” she said, giving a shout-out to her husband of 50 years, Paul.
The Democratic leader did say that children were a good reason to get hitched. “But just make sure that the person that you’re madly in love with is with the program,” Pelosi said.
And what program might that be Ms. Pelosi?
Lord how I pity her husband.
