There Is No Home Like The One You've Got, Cos That Home Belongs To You

The responsibility of building a happy and healthy home rests on both partner and it can be achieved by being each other's keeper. So if your partner becomes easily angered, irritable, depressed, frustrated and very bitter towards you, it calls for Concern and should be ironed amicably.

We talk about love without really understanding what it means and following its rules.

Love is respect, love is being each others keeper, love is patient, it is giving, it is sacrificial, it is acceptance, it is forgiveness, it is bearing each other's burden, it is being each other's strength and more else it is just a dormant and resounding lyric.

As a couple, have you lost respect for each other and seems to have become worst enemy rather than friends?. Hmm, you need to sit and find the source of the Gap and mend it.

Some people are perfect complainers and critics. They believe praising a woman or a man will make their head swell and misbehave. So, Even when the partner is slaving to death, they will rather attack, abuse, complain, criticize rather than appreciate him or her. If you are that type of partner, you can never have a Happy home. A simple "Thank you"," I appreciate" will do a great magic and turn your marriage around. Lets learn to appreciate each other for every little positive contribution to the family.

Couples should learn to listen to each other. If your union lacks communication, you are bound to have issues. When you are too busy to communicate, you are creating a gap that will be too huge to bridge. You could argue, be angry or even fight but never stop the communication flow.

Experts says cheating on your partner is like hurting yourself.
Having emotional/sexual chats with other women or men may make your wife or husband lose his or her mind.
No partner can ever be happy with an adulterer.

Learn to admire and acknowledge each other's uniqueness. There is no ugly man or woman in life. Maintenance and peace of mind brings out the best in us all.

Learn to be each other's keeper by helping at home and office. Your wife's or husband's business is yours. So, it is "our Home" and not "your home," and "our business" not "Your Business".
It is insensitive to feel and act unconcerned about your partner's business.
Understand when to lend each other a helping hand.

The greatest disrespect you can give to your partner is to keep comparing him or her with others.
we should realise that there is no perfect human being on earth and there is no home like the one you have because that home belongs to you.
Remember that the grass always look greener on the other side. Stop being covetous. Work on your marriage and have a better home.

It is not healthy to correct each other in public. If you do that, it becomes mocking and embarrassing.
It is demeaning and very babyish. Every form of correction should take place in the house and if at all you must correct as a matter of urgency, call him or her aside and speak softly, maturely and discreetly.
You will earn each other's respect and honour for protecting your image.

Arguments should be settled within your home. Don't narrate him or her to family and friends. If you must argue, do and resolve it yourself but as much as possible, screen out third parties. Both of you should speak with one voice. If your opinion differs, sort it out yourselves unless it is necessary to invite a wise elder.

It's rather strange that most partner do not trust their partner with their money but they trust them with their body, which is much more precious. Both couple should take financial responsibilities.
No one can be happy with a stingy wife or husband.
Don't be generous and philanthropic outside but inside, you are tight hand.
Women should know that " men also cry". If you have the means to help out, please do. You are helping your own and your home.

May the good Lord help us to be the best husband and wife and a good example of Christ's love to the world, Amen.
