Cherish the Everyday Moments

"Cherish all your happy moments: they make a fine cushion for old age."

We bide out time between vacations and holidays, eager for the next special event on the calendar to roll around, when we should savor each moment of your time on Earth. the lion's share of life isn't composed of holidays and special occasions. We do most of our living in the ordinary, everyday here and now.

In the course of a long-term marriage, there are many special events. But more than anything else, there are the ordinary days that make up your life with your else, there are the ordinary days that make up your life with your spouse. Don't wait for a special occasion to notice your spouse's smile or thank God for bringing you together.

Enjoy each moment. ♥

"Enjoy each moment with your mate. It is God's gift to you."

Compliment Your Spouse Often

"To say a compliment well is a high art, and a few possess it."

Don't hold back. Let your mate hear complimentary words from your lips every day. Rather than criticism, use your words to praise and build confidence. Point out the physical attributes you find attractive. In addition, continually remind your spouse of the many reasons you are sure you married the right person.

Toss aside any misgivings you might have about building up your spouse too much. The world outside your door can be a belittling and demoralizing place. Make your home a refuge from society's steady rips. Let your spouse know that your eyes see the wonderful things that the world may never notice.

"DECLARE YOURSELF AS YOUR SPOUSE'S NUMBER-ONE FAN."

Avoid Verbal Sparring, Especially in Public

"A meal of bread and water in contented peace is better than a banquet spiced with quarrels." Proverbs 17:1 MSG

Even if you and your spouse fuss in apparent lighthearted fun, save the feuding for behind closed doors. When you constantly pick at one another in public, those observing you may begin to wonder how you treat each other when no one else is around.

Another faux pas is contradicting your spouse in public. When you do this in front of others, your audience begins to doubt your spouse's credibility. And your contradictory comments might be viewed as disloyal. As your spouse recounts a shared experience to others, bite your tongue if you are tempted to share that you remember it differently. Wait until the two of you are alone. And even then, instead of sparring, let kindness rule your discussion.
