Click here to read the first 75 lines of the story lift the hood, and in a few moments determine what the problem was and then commence to fix it. One time the back bumper of my truck broke and I didn't quite know how to fix it. I was planning to take it to the garage and get them to fix it when my wife came out and asked what was wrong. I told her about my rear bumper and she went to look at it. I had one of those “aha” moments where I thought here was a project she couldn't fix. It needed a professional. In a few minutes, she went into the house and I thought she had given up. I didn't blame her because I didn't quite know how to fix it myself. Then she came back outside with one of those large universal paper clips. When I saw her with it I started to laugh. She just looked at me, grinned and went over to the rear bumper and in a few moments, she had it fixed. That was four years ago and it's still fixed. So, I have come to that point in my life where I am ready to quit. Ready to quit trying to figure out how she knows so much of everything associated with tools. I am ready to quit trying to understand the other side of our marriage. Every man that thinks he understands a woman has never yet been married. There are so many mysteries in life and I have come to the point where I have quit trying to figure out most of those mysteries. A verse of Scripture came to my mind, “Can two walk together, except they be agreed?” (Amos 3:3). Sometimes that agreement is simply a mutual understanding of the differences between each other. The secret to this is not to quit but to keep moving forward. Tweet
