I come from a family of divorced parents and as I sit back looking at our world today I see that the divorce rate in this great land of ours is at 50%.
Wow, 1 out of every two married couples will get divorced - what a shame!
I believe this is avoidable with three very simple words. Oh they are so very hard to say though!
It wasn't until I met the girl of my dreams (we are newly weds still - we just got married 10/12/1996) thats when I made the decision to not be among those statistics. So how do I do it? I say those three words that are so very hard to say. I say them often, and many times a day.
We now have kids, a girl 10 and a boy 9. I am saying those same words to them at every opportunity I get. Those dam words are just so hard to say. But......... as time went by those words got easier and easier and easier. My kids can say them with the greatest of ease because they grew up hearing and saying them! Wow, I changed my part of the world - you can too. My dad still has no idea on how to say those words, the same as his dad before him and his dad before him.
You see, there is a simple way to look at it. If someone tells you that the earth is flat, and they tell you this 10 times a day, you may start to think that the world is flat. They will start to believe that the world is flat - all because of the continual bombarding of this as fact.
The truth is, in a relationship its much different. If you are always saying those three little words you will see that they are true. And your spouse is almost forced to say them back. Then you and your spouse will start believing those words again! They meant something the day you were married and they can mean something again today!
Go home and say those three little words that are so dam hard to say, then say them again, then say them again, then say them again until they are part of your daily vocabulary!
I love you!
PS. I have the upper hand on the rest of the world so it is a bit easier for me. You see, I have the best wife there is in this world of ours. There is no better. I tell her this every single day! Not just in words but in my actions. Open the car door for her and watch her eyes gleam. Watch the other women get a tad jelous and how proud that makes your wife. Run her bath water once a month, buy her flowers or better yet, just stop the car for no reason, get out and pick her a roadside flower or two, get back in the car - hand them to her - say nothing - start driving - then smile from ear to ear!
