A Couple's Journaling Chronicle: Part 2

Grab your journal ans answer these questions about your relationship. If you can, both of you answer individually and then as a couple. If only one of you is doing this, that is okay, too. What a gift you have to offer your mate. Good for you. 

~*~ Your marriage is the one of the relationships in your life you choose. Your friends are another. Why do you choose to be married to your mate today?
~*~ Why did you choose to marry your mate to begin with?
~*~ What does your marriage mean to you?
~*~ What do you enjoy doing as a couple and why?
~*~ How is your communication as a couple? 
~*~ Have you had any misunderstandings lately? Why? What did you learn from them and how have you applied those lessons to your live and to your marriage?
~*~ What can you do better as a spouse?
~*~ What do you love most about your mate?
~*~ Do you still go on frequent dates? Why or why not? If so, what do you do? If not, make plans to do so.
~*~ Can you sit in silence as a couple? Or do you have to fill in the gaps with noise or talking?
~*~ What was your favorite date?
~*~ Write a letter to your spouse to read the day before you get married about your marriage up to now. Talk about your experiences--good and bad. What would you do differently for them? What would you do more of? What do you treasure most about your mate? Tell your mate why you are marrying them then and why you would do it again today. 
~*~ Write a letter to yourself to read the day before you married about your marriage up to now. Tell lessons learned, what to change, what to do more of, and so on. Say why you should marry your mate. 
~*~ Write wedding vows today. What would they be and why?
