Are You Putting In Enough Effort?

A happy hubby will do anything for you

Pleasing Good Men

What do I mean when I tell spouses to “Treat Kindly?” Carma and her late husband are the definition of a couple that went above and beyond to show appreciation for one another. She explains here:

I needed to tell you how right you are about pleasing good men. I'm writing you on the one-month anniversary of my wonderful husband's death. He was my best friend, and the grief is incredibly difficult.

My husband was so easy to keep happy!

He wanted my physical touch, my love, or something to eat. In turn, he wanted to keep me happy too and would do just about anything for me on a daily basis.

I used to listen to you on AM radio and missed you when you went to Sirius. However, I later discovered your Family Premium Podcast. One day, I asked my husband if he thought he could program my iPod to save your program. He did just that!

For 10 years he happily and willingly filled my iPod with your shows.

So, now you are tied to our continued daily interaction. That iPod is a daily hug from my husband. We were married 28 years and it wasn't long enough, but I cherish the wonderful memories. I am so thankful that I was lucky to be his wife.
