You're absolutely right, Oz. I am reciting that of the Christian vows. I suppose people can write whatever they want to meet their needs. However, I did hold to the obedience clause. My husband would no doubt, if he were still alive, attest to that. *mournful sighs*
Well, I'm using it because I'm not referring to the love between more than one intimate partner, but as an example of those we love with whom we do not have such intimacy. As I see it, that's a very different kind of love.
