Sober Reflection

*SOBER REFLECTIONS*

Your BIRTH came through *Others*

Your NAME was given by *Others*

Your were EDUCATED by *Others*

Your INCOME indirectly comes through *Others*

Your RESPECT is given by *Others*

Your first BATH was given by *Others*

Your last BATH will be done by *Others*

Your FUNERAL will be organised by *Others*

You will be taken to your FINAL RESTING PLACE by *Others*

and

EVERYTHING you owned will be inherited by *Others*

Hmm..... Why, then, do some of us let our EGO, our CAREER, our MONEY and our BELIEFS undermine the worth of *Others* in our lives, when we are so dependent on *Others*.

Isn't it high time we learn to live in peace and harmony with *Others*, because all through our lives, at one point or the *Other*, we will need each *Other*?

Value your spouse and realize that you hit the jackpot

“Value your spouse and realize that you hit the jackpot !” One of the most profound things I saw in the research was when I asked the couples, “Who is responsible for the happiness in your marriage?” Most people on the anonymous survey said something like, “Really, it’s me. I work hard to be a good spouse, and it makes a difference.” Strikingly, there was one exception: the happiest couples. They said the opposite. Eight out of ten pointed at their spouse and said, with gratitude in their heart: “It’s all her; she’s an amazing wife.” “It’s all him; I hit the jackpot.” One of the greatest secrets to a happy marriage is gratitude. Thankfulness. An overt recognition that you hit the jackpot. And this comes when you realize that you are not perfect, and are so grateful to have someone who is on your side and loves you anyway.
