What I think about marriage.......

THE KEY TO SUCCEEDING IN MARRIAGE IS NOT FINDING THE RIGHT PERSON;  IT'S LEARNING TO LOVE THE PERSON YOU FOUND.   

SUSTAINING love is not a passive or spontaneous experience. It'll 
NEVER  just happen to you. You can't 'find' LASTING  love. You have to 'make' it day in and day out. That's why we have the __expression 'the labor of love.' Because it takes  time, effort, and energy . And most importantly, it takes WISDOM . You have to know   WHAT TO DO  to make your marriage work.  

Make no mistake about it. Love is 
NOT a mystery. There are specific things you can do (with or without your spouse) to succeed with your marriage.  

Just as there are physical laws of the universe (such as gravity), there are also laws for relationships.
  
Just as the right diet and exercise program makes you physically stronger, certain habits in your relationship 
WILL  make your marriage stronger.    
It's a direct cause and effect. If you know and apply the laws, the results are predictable... you can 'make'love
 .  

Love in marriage is indeed a 'decision'... Not  just a feeling.
