Happiness In Marriage is a Choice

I consider myself very lucky, and blessed. I am married to a wonderful man who has filled my life with joy for the last 14+ years. We enjoy a happy marriage and a great relationship. Are we just lucky, or is it because we choose to have a happy marriage? While I do consider myself very lucky for having such a great husband I also know that we have a great marriage because we both understand that happiness in marriage is a choice.

It is easy to become distracted in life and lose sight of what is really important like marriage and family. When this happens it is easy to become disconnected from your spouse and that is when things begin to go down hill. If you don't catch yourself and change direction you end up part of the divorce statistic.

If you don't want your marriage to end in divorce there are some things you can do. It all begins with a choice. Happiness in marriage is a choice. It is never too late to choose a happy marriage.

Once you understand that happiness in marriage is a choice and you have made that choice the next step is action. Your spouse must come first. You cannot put friends, work, children, or anything else and not expect your marriage to suffer. You must take time for intimacy. Hugs and kisses are powerful, use them daily. Keep criticism out of your marriage, and compliment your spouse instead.
