Some Favorite Lyrics

S

This one verse from Tony Arata’s song, a huge hit for Garth Brooks in 1990, says a lot about why I will always Expect Love and avoid defining how my marriage to Ed should unfold.

And now I’m glad I didn’t know
The way it all would end, the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance—I could have missed the pain
But I’d have had to miss the dance

This is the sweetest dance.

I am a widow who got it right the second time. I have been sharing here since February 14, 2006 what I learned from that experience and from positive psychology, marriage research, and my training as a marriage educator.
