"To love..."

"...is to will the good of another."

Preparing for Marriage

In short:

"1. To love is to will the good of another.
2. Marriage is a continual courtship.
3. Successful spouses listen.
4. Good spouses make quality time for one another.
5. Learn to yield cheerfully in matters of personal preference.
6. Be cheerful, period.
7. Marriages work better if there is a recognition by the couple of their dependence on God."
I didn't make any of this up. I'm just quoting...
