A Winning Formula

Recently, I've spent a fair amount of time with a couple that we know well. For the longest time they seemed grumpy, with each living their own separate life under the same roof as their partner. But I've noticed a huge change recently and I really like three things that I see in them.

First, they're laughing together, a lot. They've always had the same sense of humor, but how it's spilling over into their everyday life, and they're fun to be with.

The second thing that they're doing is consulting each other. They are planning a minor home renovation and they are working together well, asking each other's opinion and really doing a good job communicating.

But it isn't just that they're communicating on big ticket items. They share with each other. They tell each other things they saw during the day, or conversations they had, and they enjoy it.

So the bottom line is this. Laughing, asking each other's opinion and communicating. Sharing events from the day. These two are not only husband and wife. They are best friends. And it's a winning formula.

Stay in touch -
