Instead Of Being Ashamed Of What You've

When You Get Married, Your Loyalty, First And Foremost, Is To Your Spouse, And To The Family That You Create Together.

If Your Neighbor Has A Completely Different View On Abortion, Gay Marriage, Stem Cell Research, All Of Those Things, You Still Are Both Americans. Neither One Of You Is Necessarily More Patriotic Than The Other. Neither Loves Their Country Any More Than The Other One Does.

Why Do So Many Marriages Fail? Because Nobody Gets Taught How To Be Married. We're Not Taught How To Pick A Mate, Or Why To Pick A Mate; We Don't Know How To Manage Our Emotions Once We're In A Marriage; We Don't Know How To Resolve Marital Conflict. Married People Have Never Been Taught Why They Or Their Spouses Feel The Way They Do And Act The Way They Do. Nobody Has Ever Taught Us The Fundamentals.

If You Don't Have A Plan, Days Turn Into Weeks, Weeks Turn Into Months, Months Turn Into Years, And Before You Know It You're Looking Back Saying, I Should've Had A Plan.

Happiness Isn't A One-size-fits-all Proposition. You Must Define What It Looks Like For You And Then Make A Conscious Effort To Access Whatever Gets You To Your Unique Definition Of Joy.
