Hey everyone! I'm writing my wedding vows in Spanish, and I'm trying to think of a really good way to say the quote in the subject line. I've come up with...

  • "Nunca es facil ganar algo que vale la pena tener."
  • "Nada en la vida que vale la pena tener es facil ganado."

Is there a better way to say this? Would saying "viene facilmente" at the end make sense in Spanish?

Any advice is much appreciated! smile

Graci!

How about, "Nada que tenga valor en esta vida te vendrá facilmente ."

I like this a lot! Thanks! - skygoneblue, Jul 27, 2010
Just wondering why tener is in the subjunctive here? - Sheily, Jul 27, 2010
Hmm, I guess I could see it either way. The subject (thing that has value) isn't entirely clear or tangible. Anyone else have a thought? - skygoneblue, Jul 27, 2010

Hmm.. I know you can say this-

Las cosas que valen la pena en la vida no son fáciles...

or

Las cosas que valen la pena no son fáciles de obtener...

Sorry that I cannot help you out with your phrases.
