Marriage requires effort and time and talking and connecting. You have to maintain it.
It had not occurred to me that marriage requires the same effort as a career. And unlike a career, marriage requires a joint effort.
Marriage requires the giving and keeping of confidences, the sharing of thoughts and feelings, respect and understanding always, marriage requires humility - the humility to repent, the humility to forgive. Marriage requires flexibility (to give and take) and firmness: not to compromise principles. And a wise and moderate sense of humor. Both need to be pulling together in the same direction.
