Your marriage
What keeps a marriage well is not the big gestures. It is knowing each other, turning towards each other in ordinary moments, staying regulated when it gets hot, and repairing quickly when it goes wrong. Most of the practices here take under five minutes.

Do not let leaving or arriving happen silently.
Today, mark both thresholds. Before you leave, find your spouse and say goodbye properly, face to face. When you come back, find them before you do…
When you come home, find them first, before the post, the phone, the kitchen.
The first half-minute of reunion often sets the tone for the whole evening.
