Makoto is the expression of our most sincere and true selves. For human beings it is the easiest and happiest way to live. We need only become aware of this truth and to develop a sincere desire to practice it as a couple in order to become one. If a woman becomes a wife whom a man can truly appreciate and love and a man becomes a husband whom a woman can respect and love, the union of the two will be what marriage was originally meant to be. When a husband and wife achieve this level of oneness their happiness will far exceed an existence of just living together or just living together to raise children.
Marriage is truly a divine relationship.
To accept your marriage as a blessing and to express Makoto joyfully within it, is to live your life without regret, no matter what the circumstances may be.
