PRINCIPLES AND HABITS OF A LOVING MARRIAGE

Pray together every day, out loud, as a couple.
Rely completely on God's Divine Providence.
Tithe 10%.
Don't try to force your will on your spouse.
Offer each other constant and copious affection.
Listen carefully and watch closely.
Show love by small acts of charity.
Ask your guardian angel for help.
Spend long periods of time together--"Couch Time."
Take the long view.
Encourage generously and encourage often.
Don't interrupt rudely or use uncivil tones of voice.
Change quickly and change easily for the better.
Ask Our Lady for all things, great and small.
