lift the hood, and in a few moments determine what the problem was and 
then commence to fix it. 

One time the back bumper of my truck broke and I didn't quite know how
to fix it. I was planning to take it to the garage and get them to fix 
it when my wife came out and asked what was wrong. 

I told her about my rear bumper and she went to look at it. 

I had one of those “aha” moments where I thought here was a project she
couldn't fix. It needed a professional. 

In a few minutes, she went into the house and I thought she had given
up. I didn't blame her because I didn't quite know how to fix it 
myself. 

Then she came back outside with one of those large universal paper
clips. When I saw her with it I started to laugh. She just looked at 
me, grinned and went over to the rear bumper and in a few moments, she 
had it fixed. 

That was four years ago and it's still fixed. 

So, I have come to that point in my life where I am ready to quit. Ready
to quit trying to figure out how she knows so much of everything 
associated with tools. 

I am ready to quit trying to understand the other side of our marriage. 

Every man that thinks he understands a woman has never yet been married.


There are so many mysteries in life and I have come to the point where I
have quit trying to figure out most of those mysteries. 

A verse of Scripture came to my mind, “Can two walk together, except
they be agreed?” (Amos 3:3). 

Sometimes that agreement is simply a mutual understanding of the
differences between each other. The secret to this is not to quit but 
to keep moving forward.
