Top-Secret Adoration
VALENTINE'S DAY 2012.
My wife and I are waiting for our food at RC's Pizza. I hand her a Valentine's Day gift bag. Inside is a journal I've secretly kept for the past three months. My wife reads the journal as if she's glued to the pages.
Our pizza comes. It gets a little awkward as my wife continues to read this journal. I'm getting hungry so I start nibbling at my New York style pizza. It's good.
After what seems like an eternity, she gently looks up from the journal with a sly smile on her face. She hands the journal back to me and says, "I want you to keep writing in this."
My friend, ever since the day my wife read the words in that journal, our marriage has never been the same. It has reached a level where we are true lovebirds in every sense of the word.
Good thing. Because just six months earlier, Iâd paid a $2,000 retainer fee for a divorce lawyer. (Once my wife and I decided to stick together, I went back to that lawyer for my money back. Why should I pay him if I no longer needed his service? He reluctantly gave me my $2,000 back.)
Words in a journal saved my marriage. But not just any words. These words described what a husband secretly observes as his wife goes about her day. I noticed how she washed my clothes, took care of our kid, and occasionally gave me hugs. It would take all day to name everything I noticed, but I wrote it all in that journal.
Those words were a powerful expression of my gratitude for what I saw her doing every day. They comprised a daily record of the events I noticed, and the appreciation I felt during that period.
Why is this important for you?
Simple. Because Valentine's Day is just around the corner. You can give your love an average Valentine's Day gift, or you can give an unexpectedly thoughtful gift that knocks her socks off. The choice is yours.
It doesnât cost a lot of money. You just have to pay attention.
