Grading life on a curve.....

So the other day I was having a conversation with my boss and some how we started to talk about life in general.  The thought came to me that God will grade all of lives on a curve and we should grade those around us on a curve except when: we are in a life or death situation and when we are choosing a eternal mate.  You have to evaluate the person that will be doing your brain or heart surgery with your head and not your heart. Marrying the right person for you is one of things that change your life the most.  It isn't enough the person has overcome so much or that they have been clean for 7 years. The sad true is most recovered addicts will relapse from time to time. Or if the person you are looking at marrying has so much 'potential'.  I understand that you  love the person you want to marry. But you have to think about what happens if they don't reach the highest you hope they will.  Will your potential marriage still work? Anyway that was my quick random thought.
