The Marriage Box

 
Most people get married believing a myth that marriage is a beautiful box full of all the things they have longed for; companionship, intimacy, friendship, etc. The truth is that marriage at the start is an empty box. You must put something in it before you can take anything out. There is no love in marriage. Love is in people. And people put love in marriage. There is no romance in marriage. You have to infuse it into your marriage. A couple must learn the art and form, the habit of giving, loving, serving, praising, keeping the box full. If you take out more than you put in, the box will be empty.
 
Bottom Line Thought: Though the box and us may get old, we are still us, and the box is still the box. Young or old, the only thing that changes is how much we put into, or take out of, the box. Are you doing all you can to keep your box full?
