quote of the day

"Don't marry someone whom you can live with, marry someone whom you can't live without."

This is a cute quote my friend sent me. Do you agree with it?

Do you remember the part in the Jerry M movie when Tom Cruise tells her, "you complete me?" That part, though sweet enough, makes me want to hurl. Sorry if you are offended because you enjoyed that part! I consider myself to be a hopeless romantic yet I could hardly watch that movie a second time without wincing. The first time I did not notice it but the second time 'round I got a distinct feeling that he was marrying here just because he felt like he was out of options and desperate to keep her from going away. Anything but be a 'loser.'

It is essential be happy with ourselves fully before being capable of loving another. If we cannot love ourself, how can we possibly love another? If we think someone else can bring all the happiness we need in our life, we need to think again. To give someone that big responsibility is really something. Not to mention if one is disappointed that their special someone did not complete their life or bring them all the happiness they desired, they'll be in for a big fall.

We have partners in our lives to complement us (and compliment us...hee hee hee)...to add to our already fulfilling lives. Think of it as double the pleasure. Having that wonderful ice cream brownie sundae (already in itself quite good) with just a sprinkle of nuts on top.
