“ Marry your best friend. I do not say that lightly. Really, truly find the strongest, happiest friendship in the person you fall in love with. Someone who speaks highly of you. Someone you can laugh with. The kind of laughs that make your belly ache, and your nose snort. The embarrassing, earnest, healing kind of laughs. Wit is important. Life is too short not to love someone who lets you be a fool with them. Make sure they are somebody who lets you cry, too. Despair will come. Find someone that you want to be there with you through those times. Most importantly, marry the one that makes passion, love, and madness combine and course through you. A love that will never dilute - even when the waters get deep, and dark. ”

There are very few things in my life that I feel I got completely right but I think I did this one. I need my best friend to be happy and the fact that we live in the same house makes it remarkably convenient for us when we want to tell each other ridiculous jokes.

The one thing I always add when I see things like this is: Find someone who dislikes the same things you dislike. Nothing brings you close to somebody like having a common enemy.

wtf is wrong with some people? I’m sorry you get so much negative feedback like this.

This is not my “I’m bothered” face, trust me. 20+ years in customer service and the truest lesson you’ll ever learn is that even if you’re doing everything exactly right, someone somewhere won’t be happy with it.

DISTRESSED HAIKU

In a week or ten days
the snow and ice
will melt from Cemetery Road.

I’m coming! Don’t move!

*

Once again it is April.
Today is the day
we would have been married
twenty-six years.

I finished with April
halfway through March.

*

You think that their
dying is the worst
thing that could happen.

Then they stay dead.

*

Will Hall ever write
lines that do anything
but whine and complain?

In April the blue
mountain revises
from white to green.

*

The Boston Red Sox win
a hundred straight games.
The mouse rips
the throat of the lion

and the dead return.

Donald Hall (interview here), in his 2003 book The Painted Bed. His wife, the poet Jane Kenyon died in 1995.

April is National Poetry Month, so take a moment to appreciate the poetic among us sometime in the next four weeks.
