Where does one find the greatest and best happiness? I think
the greatest and best happiness is found in a relationship.
What relationship? The quiet, spiritual bond between the
right kind of man and the right kind of woman joined in
marriage. What kind of man and what kind of woman? The
simple, honest, humble, good, caring, god-fearing man and the
same kind of woman. The lifelong companionship of those two
kinds of people gives the greatest and best happiness. I don't
think anything can beat that for providing happiness. The
sweet companionship of that kind of union just gets better with
the years. It is friendship at its highest level. There is
nothing to compare with it.
I have a simple, gentle, good, kind, caring, decent, chaste
wife. She doesn't have a malicious bone in her body. I have
never seen malice in her. She means everything in the world to
me. I would never find another like her in a million years. I
thank God every day for her.
We all need somebody, a helpmate, a companion in life. But we
only achieve the greatest happiness if we are the right kind of
person and our mate is the right kind of person.
