The Truth Is...

Acceptance is another key to a happy marriage.

It may sound easy especially in the courtship stage, where every discovery is considered exciting and easy to accept. But realities set in during the married life. It is where true acceptance is tested.

There are so many things that couples should consider and that include accepting each other's strengths and weaknesses. Every individual is unique in its own ways, and couples should respect that individualities. The truth is, couples only learn and know their partners well and deeply as they live together under one roof.

Sharing the common things is as important as accepting the differences. If these differences are discovered earlier in the courtship stage, the better, because you have time to adjust with each other. Still, some areas are yet to unfold as the years go by.

Honesty is very important and do not be afraid to share everything to your spouse. It is one big leap in achieving acceptance and gaining trust.

May every couples find the joy of discovering each other and find excitement along the way. And may they be of good support as much as possible to strengthen partnership or more so friendship. Besides, our better half is our best friend more than anybody else.

REFLECTION

If today you find out something you haven't known about your spouse before marriage, are you open to discuss it with her/him and willing to accept it in order to achieve a life long partnership?
