Just like any girl, I have dreamt of marriage since as long as I can remember. Although it seams simple; find a man, fall in love, get married, followed by happily ever after- that's the easy part. The hard part is staying married and being happy with the person you married.
How do you accomplish that, you ask? Well, I have come across many websites that all generally say the same things when it comes to how to have a successful marriage. Here is a link to one of those web pages so you can check it out for yourself: http://www.wikihow.com/Have-a-Great-Marriage
The most important ones I thought were-
1. Have a sense of humor; make each other laugh, be silly together in public,
and don't care what other people think of you in that moment (the only persons opinion that should matter is your wife/husbands). Having a sense of humor isn't just good for a marriage but good for the soul too.
2. Make time for each other. Spend a few minutes everyday with just you and your significant other and just talk; enjoy each other's company without any other distractions.
3. Do things for your partner for no reason at all; leave a cute love note on the steering wheel of the car so he sees it on his way to work in the morning. Or your partner fell asleep before they washed their work clothes, wash them and have them folded for him/her when they wake up. It's the little things that people appreciate the most.
Do these things guarantee a happily ever after? No, nothing is guaranteed in life. But hard work, determination and a lot of love will help you get anything you want out of life; even a fairy tale ending.
Alison--Your two new entries are good. Your writing flows well, you bring up good points for discussion, and you are working to engage your reader with thoughtful analysis and visual appeal. Keep digging into significance, connecting to your audience as much as possible. Good visual layout.
