Marriage Vows: The Way to Happiness Print E-mail
By Dr. Randy Carney

  Could something as basic as just words be the secret to true joy? Yes, and No. Yes, if the words express something deeper. No, if the words are only an uncommitted verbal exercise.

Marriage vows indicating genuine commitment can be the secret to true happiness. Is respect important? certainly. Is quality time spent together important? Yes. Is sharing important? Very important.

Marriage vows expressing genuine commitment bring real happiness. In fact, some would say that love is spelled c-o-m-m-i-t-m-e-n-t! Vows that a couple writes, if they choose to do so, should not be put down on paper in order to get away from the lasting commitment expressed in traditional marriage vows. Statements like for as long as you both shall love, do not bring much joy) to your partner if you really consider their (implications.

When you have a marriage vow that reflects a lifetime commitment, and one that reflects the idea of giving all your material possessions to your mate, such a vow produces happiness when those vows are carried out.

Pay attention to what you are going to say or write when you get married. If the vows express true commitment, then happiness will be yours, and your spouses, when both of you work hard to accomplish those vows with all of your heart.
