The most read post on my site for January 2010 was a guest post by Peter from the blog Rediscovering the Church called, "Contentment." In this post, Peter talked about something he does to keep things regarding his relationship with his wife in perspective.
I’ve learned that through four simple words I can have my perfect partner. Yes, I can have the best, sexiest, most beautiful woman in the world with just four simple words:
That’s what I like.
Seriously, I’ve found that’s all it takes. I simply look at my wife and say to myself, “That’s what I like.”
My head might want to believe the hype from Hollywood about what the perfect woman should look like, what I should be desiring and looking for but my heart knows that my wife is the one God made for me. Therefore, instead of creating a fantasy image in my head of what my perfect woman should look like, I look at my wife and tell myself, “That’s it, that’s my fantasy woman, That’s what I like!”
If you haven't already read it, please go and read Peter's awesome post. It will encourage spouses to find ways to let them know they love each other and accept them for who they are.
