Married? Ponder on This


If all you can offer your spouse are the things money can buy, there might be little or no need for your existence.

The things money can't buy are the things that hold couples together. If as a wife, all you have to offer your husband is cooking and cleaning, what happens when a house help is gotten?

If as a man too, all you have to offer your wife is money, what happens the day she no longer needs your money?

The things we use to fill the space between us shows when life happens. When it does, those with intangible offerings sail through, leaving those solely fixated on material things to drown.

What are these intangible things? Unconditional love, support, loyalty, thoughtfulness, kindness, presence, etc. A couple that has these things has it all.

Your spouse can get all the things money can buy outside of you. The things neither of you can get outside of yourselves and money cannot buy, is all that matters.

Couples outdate themselves when only tangible things hold them together. When a shift occurs and the tangible is no longer necessary, a chasm becomes inevitable.

In the end, things money can't buy ensures your relevance, and the longevity of your marriage. No one can outdate kindness. Be kind to your spouse. Be thoughtful too.
