The National Marriage Week began on Friday and extends Valentine’s Day. In a society that often mocks the institution of marriage, this week is designed to change the negative narrative and instead celebrate marriage.
While most people want to marry, the investigation indicates that they are worried that their relationship does not last. They think Marriage is difficult. And why would they not? That is the message that society sends them.
This belief is leading to a growing doubt towards marriage. In 1980, 90% of 35 -year -old men married. Today, according to the Institute of Family Studies, this number has fallen to only 60%.

What is the secret for a happy marriage? A simple word
At a time when stress, anxiety and division seem to dominate American culture, people need something positive and hopeful to aspire. Our home life affects everything we do and where we go, from our work to our emotional well -being.
A strong and loving marriage creates stability, not only for the couple but for children, work environments and entire communities. When marriages are loving and stable, families become a source of joy and strength, creating a society that is not only healthier, but also more compassionate and better equipped to handle life challenges.

The spokeswoman of the National Marriage Week, Arlene Pellicane, has just launched a book that speaks directly to this topic. His book, “Make the easiest marriage; how to love (and like your spouse for life“Throwed on February 4. Pellica says that if couples prioritize four intentional objectives, they can build a happier and hardest marriage. When focusing on positive and practical steps, marriage can be the satisfactory and fun relationship that so many want.
So what are those four simple objectives?
Play for the rules
What is your goal as a couple? Are you prioritizing the church together on Sundays? Avoid close friendships with the opposite sex? Sitting to dinner with family every night? Establish and agree together with clear priorities and limits.
Thank every day
Be Grateful for each other And express it! Find things to appreciate about your spouse and say them out loud. Each spouse wants to feel appreciated and valued.
Serve each other
Change your mentality of What can they do for me? to What can I do for them? The thoughtful, large or small gestures strengthen the link. And when both partners use each other, both feel more connected, respected and treasured.
Have fun seriously
Fun is what united you first! Laughter and shared experiences are vital for a growing and healthy marriage. Do not let the years bore your sense of joy. It can be as simple as making a heart -shaped pancake or trying a new hobby like painting together. Couples fighting often do not have fun together.
As with anything worthwhile, marriage requires effort. Each pairs faces. But imagine a nation full of stronger and more happy marriages: houses where Children feel safe And surely, knowing that their parents are not going anywhere.
According to a study by economists David G. Blanchflower and Andrew J. Oswald (Journal of Public Economics), Having a job increases happiness by 50%, and an average income increases by 88%. But marriage? Increases happiness by 151% compared to never being married.
