Good Luck Defined—Married Now For 7 Years & 7 Months
October 25, 2007 means I’ve been married now for seven years and seven months.
The wife and I were married on March 25, 2000 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Please click here for a great photo of my wife on our wedding day.
Please click here for a poem I once wrote about my wife.
Here is article from the Manchester Evening News in England on why the number 7 is considered lucky.
Here is the beginning of an ancient Akkadian poem called The Seven from 4000 years ago.
They are 7 in number, just 7
In the terrible depths they are 7
Bow down, in the sky they are 7
It gets more gloomy from that point on.
That poem is unlike my marriage. My marriage gets better each day.

Welcome To Texas Liberal
Texas Liberal is a blog of politics and political history.
My name is Neil Aquino. Here is my profile.
I can be reached at naa618@att.net.
Additional focuses of the blog are books, art, poetry, personal relationships and, also, sea life and marine mammals.
( The picture above is of the Houston Ship Channel. A narrow channel can lead to a wide sea.)
The signature post of this blog is the Martin Luther King Reading & Reference List. This list is the best of it’s kind on the web.
Another good post is my reciting the words to the Shaker hymn Simple Gifts on Galveston Island, Texas as a ship passes behind.
I live in Houston, Texas and I do sometimes write about political issues in Houston and in Texas.
I also often write about my former hometown of Cincinnati, and about the great beach city of Galveston, Texas.
I define liberalism as a role for government in the economy to help make life more fair, and a broad acceptance of people regardless of who they are.
This is why it says “All People Matter” at the top of the blog.
A blog grows one reader at a time. If you like what you read here, please consider forwarding the link.
Texas Liberal began regular posting on July 25, 2006.
I also blog at the Houston Chronicle as one of eight featured political bloggers, and on Where’s The Outrage? which posts out of North Carolina.
Thanks for reading Texas Liberal.

Congratulations on 7 years, 7 months. 7 blessings on you both.
Congratulations to you and the wife. It was a fine wedding. The marriage is obviously even finer.
Newton—Thank you for attending the wedding. I knew it was the right call to invite you. Though the guest you brought was a bit odd.
