Realize early on that each member of the union will have strengths, and that it is good to accept this. The ideal marriage will have complementary strengths, and the ideal couple will be glad to offload what he or she can’t do to the one who can. For instance, my wife will approach a problem with great attention to practical details, but I will go at it on the basis of abstract theory, of intellectual considerations which will include, but will not be limited to ethics, morality, political science, economic efficiency and so on. We are best at planning trips: I have my eyes on the horizon, if not the stars, and she will worry about the bathtubs and the food.-- Craig Nova, award-winning author and father of blogger Abbey Nova
P.S. And read the amazing letter Craig wrote to Abbey on her wedding day...
