Dr. Edward Watke Jr.
The very nearest approach to domestic happiness on earth is the cultivation
on
both sides of absolute unselfishness.
Never both be angry at the same time.
Never talk AT one another either alone or in company.
Never talk loud to one another, unless the house is on fire.
Let each one strive to yield most often to the wishes of the other.
Let self denial be the daily aim and practice of each.
Never find fault unless it is perfectly certain that a fault exists and always
speak lovingly.
Never taunt with a past mistake.
Never allow a request to be repeated... do it immediately, if at all possible.
Neglect the whole world rather than one another.
Never make a remark at the expense of the another. If is meanness.
Never meet without a loving welcome.
Never let the sun go down upon any anger or grievance.
Never let any fault you have committed go by until you have frankly
confessed it and asked for forgiveness.
Never forget the happy hours of early love.
Never sigh about what might have been, but make the best of what IS.
Never forget that marriage is ordained of God, and that His blessing
alone can make it what it should ever be.
Never be content until you know you are walking in the narrow way.
Never let your hopes stop short of the eternal house... know the
Lord as your own and live for Him first of all.
