23. Show your appreciation. In a marriage, it’s easy to take things for granted. Tell your spouse how much you appreciate the little things he or she does for you. Cleaning the house, picking up the dry cleaning, walking the dog, doing the laundry, cooking dinner for the family, and fixing the leaky faucet are just a few examples. Don’t let one good deed go unnoticed.
表达对你的感谢。在婚姻中,很容易将事情视为理所当然。告诉你的爱人你有多欣赏他或她对你的小事情。打扫房子,干洗,遛狗,洗衣服,做饭的家庭,和修复漏水的水龙头只是几个例子。不要让一个好事被忽视。
24. Be honest with each other. Once trust is lost, it is difficult to regain and this adage is especially true in marriage. Being honest also includes being honest with your feelings.
对对方忠诚,一旦诚信丢失,很难收回,这个箴言尤其在婚姻张正确,忠诚也包括忠诚于你自己的感受。
25. No holding grudges. After you work through an issue, move on and don’t harbor ill feelings. We also strongly encourage you to not bring up past challenges. The past is the past. It’s been years since either of us has brought up a negative issue from the past.
不记仇。解决一个问题后,继续前进,不要增加厌恶感。我们也强烈建议您不提过去。过去是过去。好多年没有我们从过去带来了负面的问题。
