[Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com] [Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com] [Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com] that is exactly why i registered and posted today.. to share some healing with humour with all the fine folks at marriage builders working so friggin hard on their marriages.<P>there is light at the end of the tunnel... or in my case.. black abyss!! i've been there.. done that.. got the shirt, sun visor, beach towel and gazzzzzzzzeeeeeeeebbbbbooooooo!!!

A good marriage must be created. In the art of marriage the little things are the big things…<P>It is never being too old to hold hands.<P>It is remembering to say, "I love you," at least once each day.<P>It is never going to sleep angry.<P>It is at no time taking the other for granted; the courtship shouldn't end with the honeymoon, it should continue through all the years.<P>It is having a mutual sense of values and common objectives; it is standing together facing the world.<P>It is forming a circle of love that gathers in the whole family.<P>It is doing things for each other, not in the attitude of duty or sacrifice, but in the spirit of joy.<P>It is speaking words of appreciation and demonstrating gratitude in thoughtful ways.<P>It is not expecting the husband to wear a halo or the wife to have the wings of an angel. It is not looking for perfection in each other. It is cultivating flexibility, patience, understanding and a sense of humour.<P>It is having the capacity to forgive and forget.<P>It is giving each other an atmosphere in which each can grow.<P>It is finding the room for the things of the spirit. It is common search for the good and beautiful.<P>It is establishing a relationship as counseled by Louis K. Anspacher, in which "the independence is equal, the dependence is mutual and the obligation is reciprocal."<P>It is not only marrying the right partner, it is being the right partner.<P>It is discovering what marriage can be, at its best, as expressed in the words Mark Twain used in a tribute to his wife: "Wherever she was, there was Eden."<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>"love like you have never been hurt..
