MARITAL ADVICE MARITAL PHILOSOPHY There are more than twenty short quotations scattered throughout  Marital Advice to my Grandson, Joel, like the following.  See if you agree with these attempts at marital philosophy. A woman gets married when she finds the man of her dreams. A man gets married when  he wakes up one morning and says to himself, I think it's time to get married," and he does - to the first woman who will have him. What would a man accomplish if he were to become rich and famous and conquer the world,  if he didn't have the love of his life at his side to share the journey. Money can buy almost anything, but it cannot buy the love of a good woman. Copyright  ©  2018 By Peter Davidson

Marital Advice Marital Wisdom for the Ages Here are a few bits of wisdom that will help a man have a better and smoother relationship with his wife. When you get married, the concept of  "sharing" is a little more complicated than it was back in kindergarten. You can never go wrong, though, by giving your wife the biggest half. Here's a simple idea that will save you  a great deal of grief and misery: Buy a large twelve-month calendar, the kind with a large square for every day of the month. Then, jot down on it your wife's birthday, your wedding anniversary, and any other special days. Oh, and then look at the calendar once in a while.  Copyright  ©  2018 By Peter Davidson

Marital Advice WISDOM TO LIVE BY One of the things that readers of Marital Advice to my Grandson, Joel , have enjoyed most are the short quotations scattered throughout the book, like the following. A married couple develops their own language and secret code.  It might be a touch, wink, sigh, voice inflection, or word, such as "sleo," that has special meaning to them.  It is one of the unique things about married life that forms a special bond between the couple In interpreting what your wife's body language means,  carefully scrutinize her voice, eyes, head movement, lips, laugh, fingers, hands, arms, and silence,  and then. . . . Guess. Be careful what you confess to in a weak moment - women have a memory like an elephant. Copyright  ©  2018 By Peter Davidson

Marital Advice Marital Wisdom, Passed Down for Generations When any man gets engaged to be married, some well-meaning self-styled philosophers, including his brothers, uncles, friends, and even strangers, will take him aside and offer some marital advice.   Following is some of the marital advice I received when I got married that I passed down to my grandson, Joel, when he got engaged.  Since some of this timeless wisdom and advice is quite deep and philosophical, I have added a few comments in parenthesis, based on my years of marital experience, to help Joel, and you, out a bit. That Timeless Wisdom   "It takes a lot of effort to make a marriage work." (That advice is like giving you a rowboat somewhere off the coast of California, pointing out into the ocean, and saying, "If you paddle in that direction you'll eventually reach Hawaii.) "Just treat her like one of the guys." (You might contemplate this advice carefully before you teach
