6 Successful Marriage Tips

by Lizbeth

Today we celebrate our 6 year wedding anniversary I love you babe!

Here are 6 things I’ve learned about marriage

side note – I am not perfect at any of these things, I try my best

1. It takes conscious daily effort to strengthen your marriage. It’s like a plant – it requires water, nutrients, and care.

2. The most venomous substance to any marriage is selfishness.

3. Marriage is not easy. There will be hardships along the way. The #1 thing to remember is that these hardships will help you and your spouse grow closer together. So! Don’t give up! Push forward with FAITH!!!

4. Apologize and move on after an argument. Tomorrow is NEVER promised!

5. Don’t try to keep up with the Joneses. You will NEVER be happy!

6. Try to be the first to say *I’m sorry* – don’t get caught up with who’s “right” or “wrong” … be humble and accept responsibility.

BONUS – Love your spouse. Love YOUR SPOUSE. All of them. The good, the bad, and the ugly. We ALL have flaws. None of us are perfect. Chances are that there will be things that bother us. Communicate openly and express your feelings in a respectful manner
