How did they meet?

You’ve documented marriages, now, go back a bit. Do you know the story of how your parents met? Your grandparents?

Earth’s the right place for love: I don’t know where it’s likely to go better. ~ Robert Frost

 

Imperfections

that imperfection is perfect – I talk a lot about the little things in a marriage, that make it memorable and this little video says it better than any words I could have ever expressed. It’s a new commercial that takes a humorous look at marriage from a grieving widow and how much she will miss the little everyday things that made her life with her husband special.

Make today a day of sharing stories about your life that your partner doesn’t know about yet.

What little things will you miss?

 

Falling in love with someone

isn’t  always  easy… anger… tears… laughter.. It’s when you want to be together despite it all. That’s when you truly love another. I’m sure of it.

Anger is like milk, it should not be kept too long. ~ Phyllis Bottome

 

In disagreements with your spouse,

deal with the current situation. Don’t bring up the past.

To be wronged is nothing unless you continue to remember it. ~ CONFUCIUS

 

When you and your spouse have a disagreement

regardless of who’s wrong, apologize. Say, “I’m sorry I upset you. Would you forgive me?” These are healing, magical words.

Either we’re pulling together or we’re pulling apart. There’s really no in-between. ~ Kobi Yamada

 

Don’t use words carelessly…

they cannot be retrieved.

It is far easier to leave angry words unspoken than to mend the heart those words have broken. ~ Anonymous
