A Few Phrases to Memorize

 "I'd like to teach you 4 three-word phrases which will save you thousands of dollars in counseling and perhaps a divorce. Here they are: I was wrong. I am sorry. Please forgive me. I love you.
Don't try to figure it out. Just trust me. Swallow your pride and say these words sincerely and often."
-Dr James F Jackson

This is not only wonderful marriage advice, but applicable for all other types of relationships as well.

The pastor that married us almost 10 years ago gave us those very phrases plus I need you. DH and I have both used them over the years many times.
