“Behind every successful man there is a woman” --- If a husband does not sacrifice his wishes for the wishes of his wife and does not regard the ambitions of his better half to be his own, then it is impossible for him to be successful and his spouse to be a woman of substance for him.

The more important factors are a man’s perseverance, his ability to innovate and think of new ideas, to be willing to adapt to changing conditions, to push almost tirelessly at a task or several at a time, during the difficult seasons as well as the prosperous. Certainly a man may be all these on his own, and succeed, wife or no – but to have a wife who possessed these qualities, who could bring out in her husband such steadiness and strength of character by her example and unyielding affection… The worth of such a wife is immeasurable. - James Laurence to his grandson, Laurie

Refreshen love is the maintainance of marriage.

Brothers and sisters, if your spouse doesn’t feel good about something, show respect for those feelings. When you take the easy way out by saying and doing nothing, you may be enabling destructive behavior.

Offering gifts cultivates love, the size of gifts doesn’t matter, a gesture of giving something with selfless intention is all that matters.

A person’s behaviour in his own surroundings can be benchmark to distinguish between his good and bad nature.
