Love is the fundamental building block of all human relationships. It will greatly impact our values and morals. I am also convinced that love is the most important ingredient in the single 's search for meaning.

Conflicts are not a sign you've married the wrong person. They simply affirm you are human.

If I walk in the house, and I greet my wife, and I give her a hug, kiss her on the cheek, and I say to her, "Honey, how'd your day go," and I listed to how her day went. If I say, "Is there anything I can do to help you," and she tells me, "Honey, if you could peel the potatoes," or whatever, I have influenced my wife in a very positive way.

A child may be "spoiled" by a lack of training or by inappropriate love that gives or trains incorrectly.

In marriage it is never having my own way. It is rather discovering our way.

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.

When people respond too quickly, they often respond to the wrong issue. Listening helps us focus on the heart of the conflict. When we listen, understand, and respect each other's ideas, we can then find a solution in which both of us are winners.
