Ask any couple who seems to be having it ‘smooth’ in marriage- how are they doing it? I assure you that one conclusion you will draw from their candid response would be: ‘nobody is lucky to have a good marriage.’ This is so true and right.
Success in any significant pursuit has not been and will never be a stroke of luck. Similarly, no good and working marriage emerges by accident or chance. Just like no one becomes a high flier in any field of endeavour by luck, success in marriage, more often than not, answers to calculated and intentional efforts. There are things you will never get or experience by merely wishing for them, a blissful and progressive marriage belongs here.
It is important to note here that: every good marriage begins with a decision, it is sustained by a good determination and established through relevant concerted efforts made by the couples involved. Marriage happened to be the most powerful of all forms of relationship on earth but it is also the most involving and demanding. So making it work and succeeding in it put a sense of responsibility on everyone in one marriage or the other.
A lot of married folks flop in marriage often because they are not ready to assume responsibility for the things that bring success and bliss in marital affairs. In most cases, a majority of couples don’t even have basic knowledge of the concept of marriage, a union so sensitive and deep, before they venture into it.

Singles will only remain in dreamland to think they will be lucky enough to marry a good wife or husband when they themselves have not done what is required to be a good wife or husband material. It takes two to tango- two responsible individuals who understand what is required to have a good and blissful marriage and are willing to do their best to actualize it.
In the same vein, those who are married should not expect their marriage to work out of the blue when we are yet to take the responsibility for it. Please let’s all wake up to this reality: a good marriage is always the product of the right process and approach to it.

Absolutely true. Never accidental
Thanks.
Without a doubt sir! I am with you 100% on this. Nothing left to itself ever improves. If you want a blissful marriage, you will have to take deliberate and intentional steps towards making it a dream come true.
Well done sir and keep the flag flying.
True. A marriage that is ”working” is a combination of commitment from the partners to make it work with God at the centre. Where there is no deliberate conscious effort to succeed at marriage, the hiccups will soon become serious obstacles.
Very true! A good marriage is consciously worked out!!
