I Think it's a great piece of advice for all Newlyweds.

Marriage Box

Most people get married believing the myth that marriage is a big beautiful box full of all the things they have longed for: Companionship, intimacy, friendship, etc.

The truth is that marriage at the start is an empty box. You must put something in before you take something out. There is no Love in marriage. Love is in people.

And people put Love in marriage. There is no romance in marriage. You have to infuse it into your marriage.

A couple must learn the art and form the habit of giving, loving, serving, praising keeping the box full. If you take out more than you put in, the box will be empty.
