Happier Together: There are no perfect marriages; just two flawed people refusing to walk away—who discover they’re happier together!
Happier Together: The Strength of Imperfect Love
Let’s settle this once and for all:
There’s no such thing as a perfect marriage.
(That sound you hear? Disney gasping into a glittery pillow.)
What does exist is far more powerful:
Two flawed humans—choosing, daily, defiantly—not to walk away.
Because love isn’t some flawless fantasy.
It’s full-contact. Soul-shaping. Grace-filled.
And honestly? Way more rewarding than anything scripted.
No, Really—There Are No Perfect Marriages
Rom-coms would have us believe that once you find The One, love becomes effortless.
Cue the music. Cue the sparkles. Cue… a dishwasher that loads itself?
But real love?
More like socks on the floor. Stress over bills.
And the occasional passionate debate over where the spoons should go. (Middle rack supremacy forever.)
And still—this is where true connection lives.
Not in the absence of flaws, but in the choice to grow through them.
Conflict isn’t a red flag.
It’s a relationship growth spurt in disguise.
Staying Power: Choosing Each Other Again and Again
“Refusing to walk away” doesn’t mean ignoring the hard stuff.
It means facing it—together.
It means choosing:
-
Resilience over retreat
-
Understanding over winning
-
And seeing the person, not just the problem
It’s relationship CrossFit.
It’s sweaty. Sometimes painful. There may be groaning.
But oh—does it build strength.
The Secret to Being Happier Together
You know what the happiest couples don’t have?
Perfection.
What they do have?
-
Commitment to grow—even in the mess
-
Humility to listen, not just sharpen their debate skills
-
Grace when mistakes happen (spoiler: they always do)
-
Laughter—especially when it’s most needed
(Pro tip: A well-timed dad joke can save an entire Tuesday.)
Real love is forged in the fire, not found on the red carpet.
✍️Note to Self: Love isn’t about finding the perfect person. It’s about seeing an imperfect person—perfectly.
Final Thought: Flawed, Faithful, and Full of Love
At the end of the day, strong relationships aren’t built on perfection.
They’re built on intention—on choosing each other on purpose… and on repeat.The happiest couples don’t skip the hard parts.
They stumble, they stretch, they stay.Because sometimes, the most beautiful part of love…
is simply refusing to walk away.Smile and Wave Reminder:
Your love story doesn’t have to be perfect to be powerful.And hey—whether you’re in year one or year fifty… you’ve got this.

Tony Brigmon | Speaker—Emcee | TonyBrigmon.com
Tony Brigmon is a party animal. He’s been known to stay up well past nine o’clock drinking root beer and telling G-rated jokes. Sure, the neighbors complain, but that doesn’t stop him. Because Tony is serious about having fun. Serious fun, with serious results.
As a result of his questionable spelling skills, Tony learned at an early age that his name spelled backward is “YNOT.” As in, “YNOT take a closer look at his book?” Or “YNOT smile when you should be crying?”
Tony was a Southwest Airlines “Insider” and the former “face” of their renowned culture as their official “Ambassador of Fun”. At Southwest Airlines, “fun” was the power of “positivity” that helped catapult a small carrier into a force that changed the airline industry.
Today, Tony is a popular speaker, emcee, and author of The FUNomenal™ Workplace. (FUNomenal™ is pronounced the same as phenomenal but it’s a lot more FUN.)
Former CEO of Southwest Airlines Howard Putnam says: “Tony has a gift for blending fun and capturing ideas in a manner that sticks for audiences.” Tony’s friends say that no one should have so much fun while sober. Tony’s wife said she has had about all the cheerfulness she can stand.
“Fun” transformed this author’s work and life. YNOT discover if the serious power of fun can transform the next 30 seconds of your day or 30 years of your life?
YNOT arrange to have Tony Brigmon teach you and your team how the power of fun can help you get more done, bring out the best in everyone, and make you irresistibly attractive in your communication with others. You can do this. So, YNOT?
