How to get reconciliation & serenity, when you disagree on fundamental issues? With difficulty, I would say.

Denouncing each other as 'evil and worthless'? ~ Over politics, religion or pets?!? Who would do that?

I knew that I couldn't cope with being married to someone religious, or a smoker, or someone who didn't have the same kind of education as I had. I just knew that for a relationship to work, we would need to have certain things in common.

Perhaps I was ~ and am ~ just lucky. (Not that we agree on everything ~ certainly not! Especially not music, I would say.)
