The Secret of a Happy Marriage

"The Secret of a Happy Marriage." Taken from here http://emosurf.com/post/1258

"A husband and wife lived a long, happy marriage. They shared all their secrets and worries, but there was only one thing the wife asked them never to do: look into an old shoebox she kept on the top shelf of her closet. The husband never asked about the contents of the box. He thought it contained something personal, something feminine...
But then one day the old woman fell ill. When she became really ill, she asked her husband to bring the box to her in the hospital—it was time to reveal the secret. The old man came home, found the box, and opened it. Inside were two knitted dolls and a huge pile of money—95,000 dollars!
"Where from? How?!" asked the stunned old man.
"Before we got married," said the old woman, "my grandmother told me the secret of a happy marriage: every time I get angry with you, you need to sit silently and crochet one thing." The doll. The old man was touched—there were only two dolls in the box. In 50 years of marriage, she had only been angry with him twice! He hugged his wife and kissed her.
"But where did the money come from?" he wondered.
"Oh, this?" she answered with a smile. "It's the money I earned from selling the dolls."
MY ANSWER: Thank you for the parable! Of course, forgiveness is very important, but it cannot be eternal without love. Only love, that is, the presence of the Spirit of God in a person, can make forgiveness eternal. A happy marriage can only be achieved with sincere, true love. Love, only love for a person and for God, eliminates and extinguishes a person's complete spiritual and mental loneliness, although it does not destroy it completely. Love subjugates it and transforms it into personal creativity in each person. The loneliness of each person is their individuality, their personality, which is simply impossible to destroy.
