Stress Tips...by
G. Gaynor McTiguePut affection back into your relationship. A
small amount of affection can melt days, months, even years of tension, distance
and discord between you and your partner. Take the initiative, swallow your pride
and rekindle the affection you once thrived on. A reassuring hand on the shoulder,
a simple kiss, a gentle hug are good places to start. Keep at it, even if it's
not immediately returned or acknowledged. In time a thaw will take hold, and warmth
and intimacy likely ensue. A daily dose of affection can often soothe what words
can't. Why make yourself crazy? Don't let your marriage become a lifelong feud. Marriage isn't a competition to see whose ways and viewpoints ultimately win out. If you take that attitude -- always trying to prove you're right and the other is wrong -- expect a life of tension and discord. Instead, welcome your partner's input and perspective, work together to achieve goals, and know when it's more important to back off than get your way. (How would you like to lose all the time?) View marriage as sharing -- not hoarding -- and your days are sure to be happier and more stress-free. Why make yourself crazy? Give a gift when there's no reason to. Yes, it's fun to give gifts on birthdays, holidays and anniversaries. But isn't it more or less required, or at least expected? And aren't we celebrating the event more than the person? Give a gift to someone when it's NOT expected. See how really good it will make the both of you feel. The best part is, gifts of this nature can be small and inexpensive and still have a wonderful effect. Because it's a genuine expression of friendship, love or appreciation. And it shifts the focus back to who -- rather than what -- is important in life. Stop off and pick up a surprise gift. Why make yourself crazy? Love. Purely, simply, unconditionally love. And everything else will fall into place. Why make yourself crazy?
