The Wedding Creed
 
Comfort Each Other:
Provide a refuge and sanctuary for each other from the chill winds of the world. Your marriage is a hearth, from whence comes the peace, harmony, and warmth of soul and spirit.
 
Caress As You Would Be Caressed:
Warm your loved one's body with your healing touch. Remember that as babies can die with lack of touching, so can marriages wither from lack of closeness.
 
Be A Friend and Partner:
Friendship can be a peaceful island, separate and apart, in a world of turmoil and strife. Reflect upon the tranquility of the many future years you can share with a true friend, and beware of becoming battling enemies under the same roof.
 
Be Open With Each Other:
Bind not yourselves in the secretiveness that causes suspicion and doubt. Trust and reveal yourselves to each other, even as the budding rose opens to reveal its fragrance and beauty.
 
Listen To Each Other:
And hear not only words, but also the non-language of tone, mood, and expression. Learn to listen to understand rather than listening to argue.
 
Respect Each Other's Rights:
Remember that each is a person of flesh and blood, entitled to his or her own choices and mistakes. Each owns himself, and has the right to equality.
 
Allow The Other to Be an Individual:
Seek not to create for each other a new mold that can only fit with much discomfort and pain. Accept the other as they are, as you would have yourself accepted.
 
Give Each Other Approval:
Remember - criticism divides, while compliments encourage confidence in the other. Hasten not to point out the other's mistakes, for each will soon discover his own.
 
Cherish Your Union:
Let no one come between your togetherness, not child, not friend, nor worldly goods. Yet maintain enough separateness to allow each other his or her own uniqueness.
 
Love Each Other:
Love is your river of life, your eternal source of recreating yourselves. Above all else love each other.
 
 
Rules for a Happy Marriage
 
1. Never both be angry at the same time.

2. Never yell at each other unless the house is on fire.
 
3. If one of you HAS to win an argument, let it be your mate.
 
4. If you have to criticize, do it lovingly.
 
5. Never bring up mistakes of the past.
 
6. Neglect the whole world rather than each other.
 
7. Never go to sleep with an argument unsettled.
 
8. At least once every day try to say one kind or complimentary thing to your life's partner.

9. When you have done something wrong, be ready to admit it and ask for forgiveness.
 
10. It takes two to make a quarrel, and the one in the wrong is the one who does the most talking.
