10 Secrets for a Happy Marriage

Last Friday night Antonio and I were asked to come to the Relief Society enrichment meeting and give a class on how to cultivate love and friendship in marriage. I based my talk on 10 things I have come to call 10 secrets of a happy marriage. I want to share them so here goes.

1. Kiss each other often

2. Be each others best friend

3. Practice tolerance

4. Forgive

5. Avoid criticism

6. Put God first

7. Find time to spend alone with each other

8. See your spouse with eternal eyes

9. Be a place of refuge for your spouse

10. Love always

It has been wonderful reflecting on this theme for the last 6 weeks. I love my husband very much and the last 13+ years have been the best so far.
