Mutual respect is key to a successful marriage. It takes two people committed to the covenants of respect. And while every couple has the right and responsibility to define what that means to them, I’d thought I’d give you my definition (in acronym form) of RESPECT.

Respond to each other’s feelings and concerns in a thoughtful and non judging/non-defensive way.
Empathize – take the time to really understand your partner.
Self-Responsibility – for one’s actions, reactions and choices; this includes saying I’m sorry and cleaning up your mess.
Protect each other and the relationship from any unnecessary harm.
Express love and gratitude in small and meaningful ways.
Communicate openly, honestly and kindly.
Touch, cuddle, kiss, hold hands, and make love often.

Feel free to use this definition or make one of your own. Remind yourself to live by these words every day. And make sure that you are both committed to this kind of relationship.

Remember, be the relationship you want!
