Step Five: Document the Good Times to Create More

Establish rituals that make you both feel loved and happily married.

In his book, Soul Mates, Thomas Moore talks of those little life rituals that make the soul feel content. These are usually mundane yet sacred elements of living that keep the two of you connected, keep your dreams alive and accentuate your togetherness. It's these things – a call from the office every day, a romantic dinner at home on Fridays, going to your favorite restaurant or Inn once a year – that keep you both aligned with the goals you set forth.

List these in your manual as things that you do with, and for, each other. And document them with memory pages – ticket stubs, a post card of a special locale, a menu from a restaurant where you had a romantic dinner. When you establish loving rituals to look forward to, they will never become boring.

These little rituals become a part of who you are, together.
