Theresia Whitfield The Olive Branch

From Old Testament times and ancient Greece and Rome to the present day, the olive branch has symbolized peace and gestures of reconciliation and goodwill. Regardless of how the olive branch got its meaning, peace and goodwill are in short supply, whether we are considering the world as a whole or our individual relationships.

Erik Deckers War of the Toothpastes

Every new marriage starts with some rocky issues that, at least to outsiders, seem impossible to work past. The newlyweds have different ideas about politics, raising children, or money.
