My favorite quote (by me, from an interview about why marriage still matters!) on why we try to live the metaphor of marriage…(marriage is still one of the higher, thus most difficult metaphors to incarnate!)
“Marriage is an impossible possibility, it’s a train wreck in the best movie ever. Yet, it’s why we invented trains. We like to link and risk the impossibility of intimacy and adventure, and continuum. Something in us, wants to commit forever to the impossibility of marriage! And that, in itself, is high symbol of hope!”
