夫妻颂歌 Couples A Celebration Of Commitment 下载 fb2 pdf rb kindle 115盘 极速 azw3

Most of us desire commitment. We want to know that there is someone we can count on, with whom we can join together. Yet in our dissatisfied and mobile culture, commitment is one of the hardest states to negotiate and preserve. Marriage vows no longer assure it; there is no legal contract that can protect it. In these days of easy divorce and endless possibility,it is not breaking up but staying together that is the challenge.The idea of true commitment in a marital relationship has come to be an archaic, romantic notion for many people.

However, photographer M. I. Hamburg and author Catherine Whitney discovered that, in spite of all the negative media, we are surrounded by couples quietly commemorating decades of happily married life. Couples: A Celebration of Commitment is an extraordinary tribute to such love and devotion. This fascinating book relates the formulas of success behind thirty-five special couples who have more than weathered the tests of time.Couples offers intimate portraits of both famous and not-so-famous unions that all have one thing in common: enduring love and loyalty.

With its mesmerizing portraits and inspiring prose, this work is reminiscent of the popular Sisters and Mothers and Daughters books. The text captures the unique character of each couple,offering readers a colorful range of insights on a life of commit-ment. Although many of the couples are accustomed to the spot-light, this is often the first time they have been asked to reflect on the deeply personal details of their partnerships. The result is a series of wonderfully honest dialogues. A refreshing piece in our socially turbulent times, Couples offers inspiration to all.
