    I believe, but barely can trust anymore.

    I'm not. Sin has caused sickness for all of us. Its just been a severely tough road over the last 7 years. Being a supporting husband, caregiver, and provider tends to wear me down.

    I believe, but barely can trust anymore.

    Thank you all for the encouragement. I go though severe bouts of depression that cripple me and drag me down. Last night was one of those nights. I'm doing a bit better today. Thanks for the prayers.

    I believe, but barely can trust anymore.

    I'm crippled. That's the truth. My faith is waivering. Watching a spouse suffer and slowly die has destroyed me. She's only 27.

    Turning the Other Cheek and Guns

    I'm in the same mindset. I was trained and continually train to be better to fight back harder. My family is more important than myself, and I will never let someone touch or hurt my family till I'm dead and out of the picture. Then it's in God's hands, but till then my every breath and bit of...

    Young Marriage

    And also, to the OP's original post, finding a young, married couple around your and my age is difficult. We're still looking to connect with someone our age and most married couple's are 10 years older with children.

    Young Marriage

    I was (and am) 23, and my wife turned 21 on our honeymoon. It can work, it takes a lot of patience, love, and dying to yourself to make a young marriage work. I wouldn't trade a day over the last year for anything.
