"Marriage is about becoming a team. You are going to spend the rest of your life learning about each other, and every now and then, things blow up. But the beauty of marriage is that if you picked the right person and you both love each other, you'll always figure out a way to get through it." Nicolas Sparks.
Its so true, when you get married, you are not just a couple but also a team, this "team" plays a big role in your marriage, this is where you both communicate, discuss to work as a team to reach to the other point where you want to be. This you need to use not only when arguing, but also when you have a baby or two one day, also when discussing finances, even silly things like grocery shopping (you have a budget and what list of groceries do you need). I know some men, in fact a lot of men don't discuss finances with their wives that are stay at home mom's, or men is probably not going to discuss the grocery list with you but this is so important for team work in a marriages!!! Don't ever think its small, and not important to discuss.
Team work also mean 100/100 not 50/50!!! There is not 50/50 or meet me half way in a marriage, you both must give your 100/100 in everything... yes including
We must remember life is never the same, one person does not always stay the same, inside and outside. We are ALL constantly changing, hopefully for the better not the worst!! Marriage does have their ups and downs but the downs only makes your marriage stronger! Things always changes in marriages especially when one gets older, you not going to going to stay the same like in the 20's, especially if you have children, not all the bodies get back into sexy shapes after having babies. Then you reach that age where everything sags, yes that one also comes. And remember your husband also goes through a "manopause stage" not just us ladies, men usually too proud to admit.
Small things we must always remember and take in consideration of our partner. Accept and be grateful what you have!!
When things blow up, love each other and sort it out! Life is way to short to fight all the time.
This is a quote to keep in your bible just to remind you now and again, its team work. When you get off the trail, at times (too busy or a bad time) go to your bible and read this as well as the scripture's from "Being a Godly Wife" sometimes you just needed to be reminded again.
Marriage is hard work as a team, it is not be taken lightly but much more serious than most of us take it. :))
