( I always thought that becoming one through marriage was just a metaphor…)

What did you just say?

Nothing Honey, I was just thinking.

I know what you were thinking, we’ve been married long enough.

I was just reminiscing about my years as a column, standing strong and tall, supporting the whole weight of this building on my capital.

Well sweetie now you support me.

I know Honey but sometimes, and don’t take this the wrong way but, I feel like you control every inch of my connection to the outside world.

I don’t know why you always complain about me not giving you space! There are so many other walls that don’t even let their columns out.

I mean, you need to accept that times have changed and people prefer walls to open spaces. In fact you should be thankful I still let your Corinthiany show through my simplicity!

Plus! Thanks to having a wall like me by your side is that people even notice you. If it wasn’t for me, then you would just be another column.

Also you should know by now that…

I know, I know…. “Around a great column there’s always a great wall….”

I knew you’d understand. Oh look! someone is going to take a picture of us.      Say formaggio!
