What Are the 7 Keys to Building a Strong Marriage Life?
Hello friends! My name is Anuj, today I am going to tell you about a very special topic – “7 Keys to Marriage Life ”. My parents have been married for 25 years, and I have learned a lot from them about what makes a marriage happy and strong. So, let’s get started!
First Key: Love and Respect
Mummy always says that the first rule of marriage is to love and respect each other. Love does not only mean romance, but also respecting each other, listening to each other and understanding their feelings. Papa sometimes praises the sabzi made by Mummy, even if it is a little salty. This makes Mummy very happy. I learned that if you value the little things of your partner, the relationship becomes stronger.
Second Key: Communication
My father says that communication is very important in marriage life. If there is something in your mind, then it should be said openly. Once Mummy had a complaint against Papa that he was late in bringing the household goods. Mummy talked to Papa calmly, and Papa started bringing the goods on time from the next time. I have seen that if you talk lovingly instead of getting angry, then there are fewer fights.
Third key: Trust
Trust in marriage Life is like our best friend in college. If trust is broken, the relationship becomes weak. My parents trust each other completely. Once Papa had to go out for office work, and Mummy let him go without questioning. I asked, "Mummy, were you not scared?" So she said, "When there is trust, why be scared?"
Fourth key: Helping each other
Mummy and Papa always help each other. For example, if Mummy is cooking in the kitchen, Papa helps in cutting vegetables. Once my Mummy was sick, Papa took care of the entire household work - cooked food, checked my college homework and even washed clothes. I learned that in a marriage Life , both should support each other, so that difficult times become easier.
Fifth key: Forgiveness
No one is perfect. My parents also sometimes argue over small things. But they forgive each other quickly. Once Papa forgot Mummy's birthday. Mummy got a little angry, but Papa apologized and brought her a cake the next day. Mummy smiled and forgave him. I learned that forgiving small mistakes prevents a relationship from breaking.
Sixth key: Spending time together
Mummy and Papa spend some time together every week. Sometimes they go for a walk in the park, sometimes they watch old movies at home. I remember, once we all went on a picnic together. Mummy and Papa had a lot of fun there and we played Frisbee together. That day was very fun. I learned that laughing and hanging out together makes a marriage more beautiful.
Seventh key: Patience
Patience is very important in marriage. My father says that every relationship has its ups and downs, but patience makes everything fine. Once, my mother got a new job, and she became very busy. Papa felt a little bad initially, but he kept patience and supported her. Today, my mother is doing very well in her job, and he is proud of her. I learned that marriage should not be rushed, but one should give time to each other.
My learning
These seven keys – love, communication, trust, help, forgiveness, spending time together and patience – have kept my parents' marriage strong for so many years. I have seen them follow these things every day.
I am still young, but when I grow up, I will remember these keys. Marriage is not just a union of two people, but a promise to live life with each other. If we use these seven keys, the marriage will always run on the right track.
Conclusion
Friends, this was my story and learning. I believe that if we keep these seven keys in our hearts, not just marriage, but every relationship can be happy. My parents are the best example for me. What do you think? Are there any such teachings in your home too? Do let me know!
