Here are Ten great ways to say “I Love You.”
- Apply the three C’s. Seize every opportunity to compliment, commend, and congratulate your partner. Apply to your marriage the advice of St. Paul: “Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable – anything is excellent or praise worthy – think about such things” (Philippians 4:8). Think about your partner’s personality and actions. Identify those things that are “excellent or praise-worthy” and compliment your spouse for them. Lavish him with praise. Heap words of appreciation upon her. Never forget, a sincere compliment i a tremedious gift.
- Turn off the TV. Most couples are extremely busy. Both usually work outside the home and must juggle othe demands for their time, such as parenting, household management, and community organizations. This means they have very little discretionary time to spend together. Thus many couples use television as a time to relax. However, the TV can arrest a relationship.
- Have a fair division of labor. With more and more couples working outside the home it’s only fair and right that household responsibilities be shared equally. Resentment builds quickly when one partner feels the burden of doing most of the home management. Make sure there is a fair division of labor in your home.
- Show patience. The key to everything is patience. You get the chicken by hatching the egg, not smashing it open,” wrote author Arnold Glasgow. You may not always understand your partner’s actions, nor can you always appreciate a partner’s attitude. During those times, extend the courtesy of patience. Give your partner the benefit of the doubt. No matter how close you may be to your partner, it isn’t always possible to be fully aware of the struggles with which he or she is wrestling. Remember that the Bible instructs us to a duty of sympathetic love and unselfish living.
- Be a genie-grant your partner three wishes. Most people are more comfortable giving rather than receiving. They find it hard to ask for special favors. An effective way to cut through that obstacle is to a genie-grant your partner his or her wishes.
- Think before you speak. “Raised voices lower esteem. Hot tempers cool friendship. Loose tongues stretch truth. Swelled heads shrink influence. Sharps words dull respect,”writes William Arthur Ward. Behind his observation is the reality that words are weapons. They can inspire or injure, hurt or heal. Do your best to spend your words as wisely as you spend your money. While it’s right to let your partner know how you feel, choose the words carefully. Think before you speak.
- Routinely send love signals. Small gesture often convey large meaning. Express your love through small acts of kindness, tenderness and gentleness.
- Lighten and brighten life with laughter. Laughter add richness, texture, and color to otherwise ordinary days. It is a gift, a choice, a discipline, and an art.
- Listen with your heart. When your partner is upset, allow free expression of feelings. Don’t refute his logic. Don’t explain how unreasonable she is. Don’t pick away at details. Just listen. The only appropriate comments are those that seek clarification and understanding. Later, when there has been time to process the information and when feelings are cooled, there will be a better time to respond. As a perceptive listener you show great respect by allowing your partner to share thoughts and feelings.
- Be generous with forgiveness. Forgiveness allows that process to begin. “Forgiveness involves letting go of anger, restoring respect, and offering acceptance.” If you can find a way to offer the gift of forgiveness, you will have discovered one of the strongest circuit breakers of all, one that allows you to put down the burden you’re carrying. With you hands and heart free, you and your partner can begin building a new, more fulfilling relationship.
Air travel can produce rapid air pressure changes-especially during descent-that can affect your ears.
You eustachian tubes connect the back of your throat with your middle ear and help stabilize pressure in your ears. But if the tubes don’t open often enough, your ears may feel blocked. And that can hurt. To prevent blockage:
-
Chew gum. Chewing stimulates saliva flow, which causes you to swallow often. Swallowing helps open your eustachian tubes. (HAve babies suck on a bottle or pacifier.)
-
Try yawning. This also opens your eustachian tubes.
-
Don’t sleep when landing. You may not swallow often enough.
-
Pinch your nose. Pinch your nostrils shut, take a mouthful of air and gently force the air into your nose, as if you were trying to blow open your nostrils. Or pinch your nostrils shut and swallow.
-
Use a decongestant nasal spray. Use the spray 30 minutes to an hour before descent. It shrinks the membranes lining your eustachian tubes won’t close as easily. A decongestant spray can also help open blocked ears. Follow label directions. Seek help. If 24 hours after you land your ears still haven’t opened or still have ear pain, see a doctor.
Your family may going out for shopping, or for a picnic, or for an appointment. Traveling with a baby or with little kids on board a car be a safe and pleasant experience if you consider the following tips:
-
Wear a seat belt and ask all passengers to do the same.
-
Do not use any substitute infant seat or ordinary travel bed for a car seat.
-
Do not allow two children or a parent and a child to use only one seat belt.
-
Never let the baby ride in your arms while the car is moving.
-
Avoid the temptation not to place the baby in a car seat “because we’re traveling only a few blocks.”
-
Do not leave the rear door of the car open. This lets in exhaust fumes. Also, dangerous objects may come through the open door in a crash.
-
Do not allow children to play with sharp objects or metals while the car is moving. These objects may accidentally hit them if the car suddenly stops.
-
Put loose objects inside the car trunk.
-
A pregnant mother should especially use a seat belt. Until her child is born, she is the baby’s “car seat.” The lap belt must be kept below her uterus, across the pelvic bone, to avoid injury to the baby from the seat belt.
-
Bring along musical tapes and play them right after buckling the baby in.
-
Bring along nonchokable snacks like rice cakes or bread. Do not allow kids to suck on lollipops or popsicles or anything with a stick. A swerve or an accident could ram the stick into the kids’ throats.
-
When driving long distances, make frequent pit stops.
To reduce your risk of common household burns
- Never leave items cooking on the stove unattended.
- Turn pot handles toward the rear of the stove.
- Use sturdy oven mitts that cover hands and wrists.
- Keep hot liquids out of the reach of children and pets.
- Never cook while wearing loose-fitting garments that could catch fire over the stove.
- Keep space heaters away from combustible materials.
- If you smoke, avoid smoking in the house and specially never smoke in bed.
- Keep caustic chemicals out of the reach of children.
