you better

I think marriage is like the wardrobe in the Chronicles of Narnia.  You walk into it thinking it will be one thing, a nice and tidy hiding place with four walls and tangible boundaries.  Not so much…

We used to read the Narnia books over and over because of the hope they promised.  Marriage has all the hope and possibility and magic of Narnia.  You’re on the grandest adventure of all, with your best friend, and absolutely anything could happen.  Yes, you’ll face the witches and the wolves, but the lions always prevail. 

Onward and upward!”
