"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.
