I read this yesterday and wanted to share...
The Art of Marriage
A Sacramental marriage must be created.
In the 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" each day.
It is never going to sleep angry.
It is having a mutual set of values and common objectives.
It is standing together and facing the world - and each other.
It is healing life's hurts and continuing onward.
It is sanctifying each other with a compliment each day.
It is encouraging each other's love to grow stronger.
It is sharing a candlelight dinner at home.
It is trusting each other with one's innermost feelings and thoughts.
It is being Christ for each other and for the world.
It is reaching for tomorrow by working on today.
It is not being married, but always marrying.
It is forming a circle of love that gathers in the whole family.
It is speaking words of appreciation and
demonstrating gratitude in thoughtful ways.
It is having the capacity to forgive.
It is giving each other an atmosphere in which each can grow.
It is a common search for the good and the beautiful.
It is not only marrying the right person,
It is being the right partner.
