Marriage - It's what comes after the wedding

Why Marriage?

I was thinking about a quote that I heard and just love:

"If it doesn't challenge you, it doesn't change you"

Don't you think this applies to marriage? I do - I feel that marriage is a very challenging, if not the most challenging relationship that I have experienced. (Let's not talk about the relationship with the in-laws, hahaha just kidding). But don't you think that's why Heavenly Father thinks that marriage is so essential to our salvation and happiness? We need to be changed and refined to become better - and how do we do this? By challenges, by tests, by being an relationship where you can have immense highs and depressive lows. Marriage is one of compromise and give-and-take - it's rarely easy, but almost ALWAYS worth it.
