One’s desire to have financial freedom, live an honourable, glorious and peaceful life could be marred with trouble and distress if one fails to be on one’s guard all the time. We have the duty to control our feelings, actions and what we say. The home is very important. A well known American author, Taylor Caldwel, once said, “I would rather cook a meal for a man, bring his slippers and feel myself in the protection of his arm than have all citations and honours I have received worldwide.” This is applicable to men too. Without a home there is no true freedom, hope, joy, no expectations for tomorrow, and there is no contentment.

APPRECIATION IS A MARITAL TOOL

Appreciate your partner no matter how little their effort to make you happy!

When I came across a friend’s ‘black berry’ status update some time back, I wasted no time in telling her that she had made my day with such moving tribute to her husband (whose birthday was on that day).The words may seem simple but the message is powerful and I quote ‘’ Happy birthday to the man, that makes my smile his priority –may you know no sorrow’’. This can only come from a woman that appreciates her blessing .I teach women this (appreciation) a lot. Go out of your way to appreciate your man’s efforts (no matter how little) towards your happiness. Any man you praise for the little favours he shows you -will double his efforts next time. It is most discouraging when someone begins to feel that whatever he does for you is like pouring water into a basket.

What!!! So you don't want the baby!

You meet him. He swears he is the Prince charming you have been waiting for but there is a catch: he is married with children but living apart under the same roof with his wife while waiting for their divorce to come through and most importantly for the sake of their beautiful children.

The equal rights syndrome has brought harm to the marriage system

Commenting on a post on my Facebook page, a lady wrote that to be a good husband one has to be willing to act as an ox whose only role is to carry passengers as well as luggage and still endure harsh treatment.

The above statement is without doubt the mindset of many ladies in our clime today. And this could be the reason many women these days treat their men with disdain, apart from those with the gender equality madness. To this set of ladies they believe that it is eye for eye, tooth for tooth and blood for blood with the men. They see the duties of wives in their matrimonial homes as slavery. They do not have respect for the men or rather put; they believe that a man should respect himself beyond a reasonable doubt before he should expect same from his woman.

How prepared are you to embark on this journey?

A married man was travelling in an air craft and was wearing his wedding ring on a wrong finger and someone noticed and said "Sir, you're wearing your ring on a wrong finger". The man responded, “Don’t worry; it is because I married a wrong woman".
