The Art Of A Good Marriage
by Wilferd Arlan Peterson
(who wrote a monthly column in the Science of
Mind magazine for 25 years)
A good marriage must be created.
In marriage the little things are the big things...
It is never being 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 having a mutual sense of values and common objectives.
It is standing together facing the world.
It is speaking words of appreciation and demonstrating gratitude in thoughtful
ways.
It is having the capacity to forgive and forget.
It is giving each other an atmosphere in which each can grow.
It is finding room for the things of the spirit
It is a common search for the good.
It is not only marrying the right partner
It is being the right partner.
