“When one vows at the onset of a marriage to live together “for better or worse” one anticipates little of the “for worse” scenario. Yet heartache , tragedy, sickness and death are invariably a part of the marriage, especially in the later years. Then one is particularly grateful for the support and love of a lifelong partner- someone who remembers you as you once were and who continues to care for you as you are now. To be the intimate witness of another person’s life is a privilege one can full appreciate with time. To have weathered the storms of early and middle marriage- the turmoil of children, the death of one’s parents, the adult struggles of ones own children- can create an irreplaceable attachment to the person who has shared that history with you.”

“Her career is the most important one a women can chose… Her job is to keep her family well fed and patched and clean behind the ears. Her ambition is to build good citizens… to make them happy and comfortable and proud of the way they live… Her working day often begins before dawn and may last right up until bedtime – seven days a week. Her pay? The pay she values the most is the loving appreciation of her family.” – General Mills 1950’s Ad Campaign

“So You’ve decided to have a child. You’ve decided to give up quiet evenings with good books and lazy weekends with good music, intimate meals during which you finish whole sentences, sweet private times when you’ve savored the thought that just the two of you and your love are all you will ever need. You’ve decided to turn your sofas into trampolines, and to abandon the joys of leisurely contemplating reproductions of great art for the joys of frantically coping with reproductions of yourselves. Why?”
