Still Drawn Towards Feminine Beauty

Still Drawn Towards Feminine Beauty

Could I have known before of what I now know on my 80th year I should have warned you before the blessing of the church that I’m still drawn towards feminine beauty. Though would I know this, I wouldn’t have the nerve to say so. You might be frightened and you wouldn’t marry me.

And it is so foolish to celebrate a wedding feast on the beginning of a life’s voyage as though it were a succes already, when I remember our quarrels, hate, sufferings, torments, miseries, … more than half a century sharing together, I wonder why you still stay with me and don’t run away. Ha, ha.

So said Opa Johan to his wife..
