TAKE HOME POINTS FROM SUNNY

1. Recognize what you can control and recognize what you cannot control. Chances are if you are suffering in your relationship, so is your partner...so the question becomes...how do you decrease your own suffering? 
2. Am I arguing with reality….Am I agonizing....ruminating or regretting a part of my past or present instead of being grateful for your present  What do I already have that I take for granted? 
3. How am I trying to change my spouse? Maybe nothing major...but something small. And in doing so...am I stealing my spouse’s joy? 
4. It only takes one person to make the relationship better.

WALK AWAY ASKING YOURSELF

• If my spouse was not here at this moment, how would I find a way?
• When it gets ugly...when the times get tough….because it will, how will I be here for my spouse, for me, and for us?
• What if today was the last day I had on earth? How would I spend it? What would I say or do with my spouse? What would I be grateful for?
• What am I bringing to my marriage?
• Is my happiness dependent on my spouse filling my cup?
