I like the story of a couple celebrating their 50th anniversary. She offered her secret to long and happy marriage: "On my wedding day, I decided to make a list of ten of my husband’s faults which, for the sake of our marriage, I would overlook."
One guest asked what some of them were.
"To tell you the truth, my dear, I never did get around to listing them. But whenever my husband did something that made me hopping mad, I would say to myself, ’Lucky for him that’s one of the ten’"
“My dear brothers and sisters, be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry.”
