Love overcomes all
Even those differences
Of an opinion

Ah, I certainly agree with this message. Love is a powerful emotion, that's a given.

Morning Jerry.  I got to thinking that really the hardest differences to overcome are just attitudes...And those that seem the most connected don't seem to let attitudes get in the way.

If that were true beyond poetry, there would be no strife of any kind to cause permanent divisions.

All my ex-wives agreed with me on that.

Wrong Answer! Only one soul mate per customer please! Ex's do not qualify as they do not pass love's litmus test. I have Ex husbands to prove it.

Learning to agree that two people are capable of holding those differences and still coexisting is one of life's greatest achievements.  It seems simple for those who've done it... for others though, it's somewhat akin to climbing Mt. Everest.  Enjoyed.

Fishing for soul mates at the expense of discarded 'loves' doesn't make one an eligible 'soul mate' for anyone else. The ones cast to the wayside have their own strips of litmus.


All my ex-wives agreed with me on that.
