True Love Cannot Begin Until The "in

The Object Of Love Is Not Getting Something You Want But Doing Something For The Well-being Of The One You Love.

One [reality] Is That I Am Responsible For My Attitude. I Can Be In Prison, And I Happen To Get A Chance To Go Outside. I Can Look At The Mud, Or I Can Look At The Stars. I Am The One Who Decides Which Way To Look. That Is True For Every One Of Us.

Marriages Are Always Moving From One Season To Another. Sometimes We Find Ourselves In Winter--discouraged, Detached, And Dissatisfied; Other Times We Experience Springtime, With Its Openness, Hope, And Anticipation. On Still Other Occasions We Bask In The Warmth Of Summer--comfortable, Relaxed, Enjoying Life. And Then Comes Fall With Its Uncertainty, Negligence, And Apprehension. The Cycle Repeats Itself Many Times Throughout The Life Of A Marriage, Just As The Seasons Repeat Themselves In Nature.

Once You Identify And Learn To Speak Your Spouse’s Primary Love Language, I Believe That You Will Have Discovered The Key To A Long-lasting, Loving Marriage. Love Need Not Evaporate After The Wedding, But In Order To Keep It Alive Most Of Us Will Have To Put Forth Effort To Learn A Secondary Love Language. We Cannot Rely On Our Native Tongue If Our Spouse Does Not Understand It. If We Want Them To Feel The Love We Are Trying To Communicate, We Must Express It In His Or Her Primary Love Language.

We Can Choose The Attitude That Says, I Have Been Wronged. People Have Hurt Me, But With The Help Of God, I Am Going To Learn How To Return Good For Evil, And I Am Going To Make A Difference In This World.
