PART 5 AND 6 - LASTING LOVE



    PART 5 Continue communication.  Men and women are different, psychologically and emotionally opposites.  The fact that opposites attract is God’s joke, because what attracts us before marriage, drives us nuts after marriage.  The grace of God will allow you to communicate your differences.    That’s the reason God put us together.

Embracing our differences keeps the relationship from getting stale.  How boring would it be if you and your spouse do things exactly the same.  Yes, it is sometimes a boon to a mate who thinks and does things the same way you would but let's face it, differences add the spice of life.  God has created each of us unique individuals and He threw in free will which if we mull about it more, we could come to the conclusion that does make the proverbial "world" go round.

   PART 6-Refresh Romance.  Keep the love light burning.  When we say "living together", what we really mean in today’s society is that we’re sharing the same bed.  That is the idea that we are together physically, we are dwelling together, living together, speaking of sexual mutuality, the physical side of marriage.  Express that love physically, but all through life keep the romance going.  Always touch and hug,  Keep it there.  Keep that courtship going, never cease flirting with your wife or husband and never flirt with another man or another woman.  There is only one darling, or honey.  Keep her/him number one.  Give honor.  Be a gentleman.  Show her courtesy, and compliment one another constantly. 

Making time for each other doesn't just mean dinners, vacations, etc.  Even at home, you can do things together like cook, watch football games, play cards, or just talk.  Never lose your sense of humor with each other.  For me keeping the humor is very important.  Making light of everyday events and not taking oneself so seriously really paves the way to a comfortable and stress-free relationship.  Be each other's best friend.

Often the wife is the one who initiates a deep conversation.  The husband should at times oblige her with some thoughtful musings even if it could be unsettling and foreign.  Consequently, at times the wife should just sit and listen to her husband or in the same token, be quiet, when he is lost in his thoughts.  The result could be very fulfilling in the form of mutual respect.  However, in the event both are fragile, the stronger one at the moment must let the other go first.

Till the next rant... LOVE ONE ANOTHER!
