I find it so hopeful as a young person starting out on the relationship journey (not married yet) even as I see so many in my parent's generation getting divorces. It can be rather overwhelming to see it happen to so man and wonder what I can do now to prevent that in my own life. The beauty of the framework you lay out is that when we approach marriage (or even any other relationship) in this way, we prepare ourselves for a much richer and more productive life. Our life goal's should not be to be happy, but to grow to become better people. I’ve always particularly liked this article.

Rather than using the term that denotes a solid structure, marriage is fully a relationship. Fluid, changing, synergetic. I'm going to run with it.

I believe that marriage is a commitment. It's a relationship that we build on faith and love. It also involves having desire to give up for your alter ego. Becoming selfless is the hallmark of a great relationship. I've used Buddhists belief in living in the present moment: It detaches your emotions from the outcome of an argument with your wife. If I do not expect desirable ( in my favor ) expressions, I condition my mind to remain happy regardless of an outcome. I just join your blog. I would love to have you visit my blog and sign up using the feedburner email. http://www.successsoul.com/blog/ Happy blogging ! Shilpan Corey,
