Funny Illustrations of Life Before and After Marriage

The “befores” and “afters” of our life might be easy to distinguish, but when we look at them written in a list it can seem like one or the other is better. Learning to value both periods of our lives is a trick for staying happy no matter what life brings you.

After marriage, though, we begin to live out those imaginations, and we learn what life looks like realistically.
