Happy Couples
April 9, 2024
How are happy couples different? Many experts indicate that they share rituals. They have that set aside early morning hour, or reconnect time at the end of the day, and its theirs. Or it’s a ritual of making breakfast together. Or an outside walk, even a short one. It’s not the nature of the event. It’s their shared routine, their way of saying we are important to each other, and here’s evidence in action.
I understand busy families. Being married to a traveling broadcaster, raising children, being an employed mom, it’s easy for those set aside moments to be crowded out. And children thrive on that sense of predictability, order and connection. Protecting your marriage is worth every effort. And just the simple act of having a shared ritual is a good beginning.
