JUST MARRIED

I thought one day that I might run for mayor.  I had the perfect opportunity,  I was known by everyone in my small town,  and everyone knew I would be a hard worker and would want what was best for my town.  But like many of my ideas I decided someone else would be better at that than me. Several years later I thought that I might like to be PRESIDENT.  That was a short lived idea when I became 2nd vice president to the Lioness Club.  I found out that was a lot of work.  So I decided I'd let someone do all the work and I'd be thier handy person (gopher). I loved that job.

After I got married,  and divorced,  and re-married I decided that I did want to  be Mayor.  I think I would make it a law that every married person must  have to drive around forever with the words " JUST MARRIED " on the window of thier car.  It would serve a real  purpose.

!.)  When times got hard they could look at those words on the window and realize that they had someone other than themselves to consider when making decisions.

2). It would also serve to remind all those  out there who develope selective amnesia  that they have a significant other, that they made a committment to someone, and that like it or not they DO NOT have a right to cheat on thier spouse. 

But the best thing about  having to drive around in a car with the words " JUST MARRIED " on it  is that  you don't seem nearly as attractive as when you were  driving around in that sports car before you got married.

Why is it that people these days  seem to need a constant reminder of the things that  are suppose to be  important to them.   How can a promise of a lifetime be so short lived.  Why does love end the second somthing better comes along.  Why do people always feel  that the grass is greener on the other side of the fence.  I hope we can learn an important lesson.,  That for the grass to be green it takes a lot of tender loving care and lots of  time and energy...without proper care it won't matter  which side of the fence you're on it will soon die.
