marriage. Some of these ideas are very
traditional, such as that illustrated in the
Franklins Tale. On the other hand, other tales
present a liberal view, such as the marriages

was once a teenager, I must know. All I can

these days. Hoping to find some answers I attended

In his article Bernard Cooke states that To say
human love is sacramental, implies that it is a
mystery of personal presence. Basically what he

it. The deeper the love or friendship is, the more
God works on that and gives the couple his grace.
It starts out very simply when we meet the other
person and actually like and enjoy being with
them. That is the first sign of Gods work, of
being together. Obviousl...
