When it comes to marriage preparation seems to be a word we rarely speak of. It seems as though wedding planning seems to be the only preparation we take before tying the knots. unless you have the foresight to have prenuptial counseling.

You’re likely unprepared for the unpredictability of living with your spouse. We surely we’re. Even if you live together prior to being married. Things change once you get married. I can’t verbalize how it changes but it just does.

Creating a peaceful home is important. Though it may not be easy or natural to hold your tongue. You’ll find thoughtfulness will go a long way in a marriage.
