I think that in today's world, by nature, we are all self-centered. And that often leads to selfishness.

We are trained to analyze problems and create solutions. We forget that marriage is a relationship, not a project to be completed or a problem to solve.

Sex is the joining of two bodies; love is the joining of two souls.

Love is reaching out to try to get to the other person.

The in-love experience does not focus on our own growth or on the growth and development of the other person. Rather, it gives us the sense that we have arrived and that we do not need further growth.

This is a huge thing if you are going to have a positive impact on your spouse. You have to not only realize this, but you have to practice this.

Forgiveness is not a feeling; it is a commitment.
