The Scenic Route

While running errands at noon, I was listening to BroadMinded on XM Radio (love those girls!). They were interviewing Irish author Marian Keyes, whose newest book "This Charming Man" is just out.

Ms. Keyes made a statement about her life and romances that I think I'll adopt to apply to all my marriages and relationships. She said, "I took the scenic route."

I love the mental image that statement brings.

If you've got to experience some bumps in your life, wouldn't you rather it be on a scenic route than a boring straight-and-narrow road through the desert?
