...who has the patience and conviction of Job, the wisdom if Solomon, the courage of Joan of Arc and the love of Christ! (And, of course, that describes my wife!)

There even is a woman behind every not-so-successful man...

Giving comfort to heal the wounds; pulling extra weight to carry the load for both; holding onto hope for lessons learned; always seeing the positive... and saying it; staying in the boat no matter how high the waves; able to do without if that be the case, without getting grumpy; there to enjoy the good times... and help get through the not so good times.

Simply a faithful companion... come what may.

Men may have produced the form, but in every case, it takes a woman to provide the matter for that sacrament.

Your wife is behind every successful man? She must be very busy. :)

Behind every successful man there is a woman... but who is behind successful women?
