| Happiness in a marriage is something that does not just happen. A good marriage must be created. In the art of marriage the little things are the big things. ~You are never too old to hold hands. ~It is remembering to say "I Love You" at least once a day. ~It is never going to sleep angry. ~It is forming a circle of love that gathers in the whole family. ~It is at no time taking the other for granted; the courtship shouldn't end with the honeymoon, it should continue through the years. ~It is doing things for each other, not in the attitute of duty or sacrafice but in the spirit of joy. ~It is speaking words of appreciation and demonstrating gratitute in thoughtful ways. ~It is not expecting the husband to wear a halo or the wife to have the wings of an angel. !It is not looking for perfection in each other. It is cultivating flexibility, patience, understanding, and a sense of humor. ~It is having the capacity to forgive and forget. ~It is giving each other an atmosphere in which each one can grow. ~It is not marrying the right partner, it is BEING the right partner. by Wilford A.
