Marriage: Conflicts are Normal
Conflict is an integral part of married life.
Inability of couples to handle & resolve their differences is a bigger problem than the conflict itself.
– Salvador Minuchin

NO ONE can make us happy ALL THE TIMEMany people enter marriage with ideals.
They imagine ‘happily ever after’ marriage.
And some even dwell in thoughts like, ‘I can finally be happy!’
In reality, NO ONE can make us happy ALL THE TIME.
Because, we live in a world full of sin, sinners, sinful desires and temptations.
When two sinners marry, there will surely be conflicts. It is part and parcel of all marriages.
And, conflicts themselves are actually normal, as emphasised by Salvador Minuchin, a famous family therapist.
What’s more important is our ABILITY to handle and resolve differences that will surely occur between two individuals united in one sacred marriage.

What’s more important is our ABILITY to handle and resolve differencesSo, let’s not give up!
Let’s keep on WORKING ON our relationship, communication, expression of care, love and respect, etc.
May God help us married couples and shower us with His mercy and love.
