| + | >A married man and woman are like two separate trees planted in |
| + | >different holes at the same time. |
| + | > |
| + | >They are a permanent fixture in the landscape and together watch the |
| + | >years and seasons pass. |
| + | > |
| + | >They are the same size and one does not hinder the growth of the other. |
| + | > |
| + | >Because they stand so close together they are not as subject to wind or |
| + | >ice damage as a single tree is. |
| + | > |
| + | >The two together are more likely to survive adversity. |
| + | > |
| + | >They grow very close to one another but they are truly separate. |
| + | > |
| + | >There is space enough between them for the wind and air to pass. |
| + | > |
| + | >Their roots are entangled from beneath and how they are joined is |
| + | >hidden from the world. |
| + | > |
| + | >They derive their sustenance from the same source. |

| + | >One can not be separated from the other without risking them both. |
