Marriage and life span

Marriages shorten women's average life span by 7 years, in comparision with un-married women. For men, the reversal is true. Marriages elongate their life's span up to 7 years, in comparision with un-married men.

My goodness, I hope this is the START of my at least seven MORE years! Have you ever tho't that ther is something that CONTROLS our lives, to make us SAY, FEEL, and ACT the way we do? Is Destiny CONTROLLED by CODES?

You have DNA and RNA CODES in you, plus other CODES that switch things ON and OFF in your body, ALL to CONTROL you!

WHO PUT THE CODES INTO YOU?

Likewise, YOU CAN READ CODES RIGHT OUT OF YOUR OWN BIBLE, that CONTROL your Destiny!

See the "Chosen"Code and "Color" Code; VISIT: http://quadcode.blogspot.com ! Save or Print it to study!

I think living with men just shortens life spans, period. Living with women, on the other hand, well - who else is going to coax you to eat texturized vegetable protein?

That is why mommy married daddy who is two years younger. But they say that people who have dogs live longer. So mommy and daddy will live a long long time. Woof woof

What a paradoxical fact. Just bear with me a second. If women make us men live longer, the only logical outcome is that the women live less than the men, because men live longer! Got it. I thought so!
