If wife can’t appreciate what she has, what she has won’t get better. Ditto for husbands.
- If behind every successful man is a surprised woman, he married a snitch, witch, or bitch.
- My heartstrings continually plink out these tunes for marital longevity: My Attitude of Gratitude and I’m My Leader’s Favorite Cheerleader.
- It’s not original, but I love it: Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass. It’s about learning to dance in the rain.
- Problems are every day, so recovery is everything.
- Full disclosure is vastly overrated even after 54 years of marriage.
- A man’s work is never done, or so he should be told. In the grand scheme of things, it doesn’t matter that her work is never done. She’s gonna do it anyway. He will too, but only for the woman that appreciates him for it.
- The world’s biggest con job: The devil has convinced us that he doesn’t exist.
- We have never turned on TV in the morning nor had it in the bedroom. It makes day and night more female-friendly.
- Feminine means the opposite of this: Hunched over the plate, taking mouth to the fork, and eating as pot bellied men consume.

Thank you Mrs. Guy!
Dear Your Majesty Grace,
Your last point reminded me of the scene in “Gone With the Wind” when Mammy admonishes Scarlett that a true Lady is revealed by her table manners and she encouraged Miss Scarlett to have a small meal before the barbeque so she would eat like a lady and not a field hand. That Mammy had a way with words. Thank you for sharing your wisdom with your court.
Gratefully
“Problems are every day, so RECOVERY IS EVERYTHING” (emphasis, mine). This simple statement is profound. If children were taught this — by parents who show their love by spending time with them, teaching them how to control their emotions and how to problem-solve — consider the varied problems (ranging from minor selfishnesses to self-pity to violence) that would be prevented in their later years.
Your Graciousness Sharon,
Very perceptive and very applicable for the Me Me generation.
Guy
I read this somewhere: “There is a difference between honesty and disclosure.”
