She’s my best friend…

Margaret and I've decided that we want to be each other's best friend as we maintain our marriage.  The reason is I heard a quote from Mary Alda, the wife of the actor Alan Alda.  She said, "It's easy to leave your spouse.  It's not so easy to leave your best friend."  I want to be Margaret's best friend.  And I know she wants to be mine. 

The key to being best friends is spending time together.  You cannot be best friends with somebody you never spend time with.  You cannot be best friends with somebody you don't tell what's really going on in your heart and mind.  You cannot be best friends with someone you spend no time with and never see. 

Just a thought from the front porch…
