#Quality Of #Great #Marriage

Relationship Vision: 

#Couples who have created a #relationship vision for themselves know where they’re going as they’ve planned it #together. They get joy out of reaching for their goals as a team and are less likely to be derailed by #surprises down the line. Where do they see themselves in 10 years? What are their #marriage and #family #goals? 

Perhaps many of the above ideas resonate with you, and perhaps some do and some don’t. It’s also possible that you have many additional ideas about aspects of #successful marriages. At the end of the day great marriages are created by the two people involved and are defined as such by what works for each of them together. I encourage you to sit down with your spouse and talk about your ideas of what makes a great marriage and make it so for yourselves! 

"Radha Krishna(The Eternal Love)"

Slowly, gently let’s dive into the world,

The secret romantic world of Radha and Krishna.

Yellow garments covering Krishna’s body of blue,

Radha’s countenance blushing like the timid silver moon,

With the luring notes of Krishna’s magical flute.

Krishna, who steals from his sanguine eyes,

The precious love deep rooted in the heart inside.

When he stole a glance at Radha’s hazel eyes,

Desire and Love melted to one in two hearts,

And two souls entwined together to form a name ”Radha-Krishna”.

No one near but the white moon above,

In whose milky beams, Love bathes with the doves,

Witnesses the romantic melody of the tranquil night,

That dances out of Krishna’s flute, graceful and divine,

And on the tune of which Radha droops her eyes meekly.

On the leafy grass, Krishna on Radha’s lap,

In the dark infinite, stars on cloud’s arm,

No eyes have got the boon to get such blissful sight,

Only jingling of Radha’s anklets and notes from Krishna’s flute,

Can feel this spiritual romance of Radha and Madhava.

Krishna’s tempting eyes doing the trick,

Calling Radha’s tempted lips to give a kiss,

And like a desert nomad’s thirsty throat in an oasis,

Krishna’s lips keep on drinking the winy kiss from Radha’s lips,

Which drowns his heart in the flooding river of kiss.

This secret world of spiritual love and divine romance,

The sweet of whose nectar soothes the moon and the stars,

What wondrous beauty is hidden in its bosom ?

Where Radha and Madhava , in different conjoining postures,

Come together to fulfill every lustful desire…

Express your Needs....

#Express Your #Needs

You must make known your needs to your #partner. He or she can’t be expected to guess about what your needs are. #Balance is #important in that extreme self centeredness is as bad as extreme selflessness. Keeping your needs to yourself doesn't allow your partner the chance to express #love through the #act of giving.

Building a ‪#‎strong‬ ‪#‎marriage‬ :

‪#‎Relationship‬ ‪#‎Advice‬: If you are both actively committed to a strong marriage, ‪#‎communication‬ is key. But talking isn't always enough. When considering actions to keep your marriage strong, take some tips from these relationship questions:


What are you doing to improve and beautify the environment of your home, inside and outside?
Are you cooperating with each other on such matters as household projects, childcare or financial management?
Do you regularly use courteous words and actions, such as saying "please" and "thank you?"
Do you show enthusiasm and encouragement for what is important to each other?
Are you meeting each other's physical and emotional needs?
Do you do many small kind and thoughtful acts for each other, such as bringing a cup of tea or coffee, picking up a mess without reminder or offering a foot or back massage?
Do you show love in ways besides words, such as with a gift or gentle touch?
Do you respect each other and consider each other's schedule and needs when setting up activities?
Are you nurturing your spiritual bond with prayer or worship?

A final relationship tip: Remember that actions speak louder than words.

Fighting Can Help Your Marriage

Relationship Question: My husband and I fight a lot. Is it okay?

Relationship Advice:
Chances are you're fine. You know those annoying couples who never fight? Turns out they're 35 percent more likely to split within four years than couples who regularly disagree. Apparently, arguing helps avoid that "angry on the inside" phenomenon that can lead to bigger problems. So, that fight last week over who didn't replace the toilet paper might have been totally good for your relationship.

That said, if you're having serious relationship questions or are feeling like ALL you do is fight, that's not healthy either. What matters most is the way you and your husband work through marriage conflicts.

Here are some relationship tips on how to fight fair:

1. See Your Husband's Point-of-View: You don't have to agree with him, but at least try to see things from his perspective and acknowledge his feelings. 
2. It's Not About Winning: It's about working out marriage conflicts. Who cares if you're right if you end up alone? 
3. It's Not All About You: Your husband may be stressed at work or is just having a bad day. He might be picking a fight just because he's feeling down. 
4. Tackle One Issue At a Time: Don't start bringing up relationship problems that you've had in the past. Stick to the topic at hand. 
5. Skip the Name-Calling: You're not 10-years-old. Treat your husband with the same respect you'd like him to treat you. 
6. Accept Differences: Sometimes you've just got to agree to disagree and let the subject drop. 
7. Forgive: The most important thing is that you acknowledge that you're committed to the relationship—despite its problems. Let your husband know that you love him and accept him—despite all of his faults!
