Would a mere candle hold against the wind…

 

A hypothetical question for every one like us….

What would you think if someone asks you to be his “spouse” for life?

Big question, no?  I know I can’t answer it right away with a definite YES or NO.  I mean this is serious business.  It’s not as if you’re going to decide whether you’re having fish or beef for dinner.  Or whether you’re going to have dinner at all.

Two key words jump at your face immediately: “spouse”, and “for life”.  Just what these two words would entail can already fill some chapters or even volumes.  I mean, even for normal heteros, these can cause alarms to go off.  Or it can precipitate near nirvana.  Depends on who is being asked, I guess.

But for you and I, we the non-normals of this world, those words are like an enigma….
