Dependence is beautiful when it does not become weakness and inefficiency.
The true wife clings and leans; but she also helps and inspires.
Her husband feels the mighty inspiration of her love in all his life.
Toil is easier, burdens are lighter, battles are less fierce, because of the face that waits in the quiet of the home, because of the heart that beats in loving sympathy whatever the experience, because of the voice that speaks its words of cheer and encouragement when the day's work is done.
No wife knows how much she can do to make her husband honored among men, and his life a power and a success, by her loyal faithfulness, by the active inspiration of her own sweet life."
