"In marriage it is necessary to reinvent the relationship and to be attentive with each other all the time. This is the way to keep the relationship alive. In this aspect, it is also important to live one's life together sharing relaxed moments, beautiful moments and moments of quietness.

It is equally important to allow time to share the moments of everyday life, like a relaxed extension of a family lunch, having a coffee together or reading the newspaper and looking back on the day.

Shared everyday life could also mean going for a walk outdoors together, travel, excursions with the car, visiting friends, exchanging thoughts after seeing a TV program or engaging in deep and profound conversation with the partner."

Translated to English from the book:
Mujer y hombre frente a los desafíos de la vida en común

by Jutta Burggraf


Marriage is the most important relationship of our adult lives and rather than be left to the vagaries of time, opportunity and circumstance, it should be nurtured with the utmost dedication and determined love that we can afford it. One of the most important fruits of a happy, resilient marital relationship is a happy, resilient family.
