My daughter is getting married in a couple of weeks and as I have anticipated this big event in her life and the creation of her new family, I have thought a lot about the things that make an awesome marriage and the things I wish I would have known when I got married.
Every marriage (and every relationship) requires work to be happy and successful, but for the most part, most of us are trying to make our marriages better by doing the wrong kind of work. The work we need to do is always in our own minds and hearts and examining our own thoughts and feelings.
Today on the podcast, I’m sharing eight things that I think every newlywed should know and whether you are brand new at marriage or have been married for decades, these thoughts will make every marriage more awesome.
