A time to weep, and a time to laugh, - A time to wail, and a time to dance for joy;

For he shall not much remember the days of his life; because God answereth him in the joy of his heart.

Go thy way, eat thy bread with joy, and drink thy wine with a merry heart; for God hath already accepted thy works.

Find joy in living with your wife whom you love every day of your pointless life that God gave you on earth, because this is your life assignment and your work to do on earth.
