I've enjoyed reading these stories. I am getting married in August this year and many of these are a great inspiration to me. In a way, I feel I've found my John Walton. Lyle has been there for me through all of my ordeal with my eye surgeries and it's not over yet. And he said he'll stay with me no matter what happens. I know that someone else would've left me a long time ago, but not Lyle. He and his family have been wonderful to me by opening up their home and letting me stay there during all of this. We will soon have our own place after we're married, but his family will surely be nearby (next door and in the new house their going to get, his parents will be upstairs). I guess are situation is kind of like The Waltons. They helped and took care of their parents and so will we. My own family will be close as well. Thanks again for these wonderful stories. I enjoy reading them. Some of them almost bring me to tears.
But I do agree, many younger people today seem to take marriage for granted, and do not take those sacred vows seriously. My cousin got married a year and a half ago and now they are getting a divorce. They are both 22 years old. She chalks it up as being too young. Nope, that's not it. She did not want to be married for a long time, only she did not tell her husband this. I feel bad for him. It's a shame. Why put someone through that?
