walking

Fredrich Neitzsche suggested that marriage is a “long conversation” urging us, therefore, to marry a friend. (Gary Thomas)

Marriage is a long walk two people take together. Sometimes the terrain is very interesting, sometimes rather dull. At times the walk is arduous, for both persons or for one. Sometimes the conversation is lively; at other times, there is not much to say. The travelers do not know exactly where they are going, nor when they will arrive. (Kathleen and Thomas Hart)

In light of the above two quotes and my professed love of taking walks with people, I suppose it’s appropriate that one of my personal longtime euphemisms for romantic relationships has been taking a walk. *grin*
