The gift of apology
Poet Hugh Prather says, "People eventually forgive and come back together because we need friends more than we need pride." Being able to say "I'm sorry" as issues come up helps to keep the slate clean the entire year. So swallow your pride and apologize.
The gift of appreciation
I've never met a spouse who didn't like to be appreciated. Simple words such as "thank you" are a vital gift to give your partner. This is simply another way to say "I love you."
The gift of anticipation
The couple that hopes together, stays together. Find something to look forward to and anticipate it together. This can be a little thing like a meal cooked together, the birth of your first or next child, or anything in between.
The gift of memory
Call up your spouse's friends and ask them to share their favorite memory of your spouse. Then put them all in a nice journal, scrapebook, DVD, etc.
The gift of belonging
Another one of our deepest human needs is to feel like we belong to something greater than ourselves. And we will go to just about any length in order to belong. During this holiday season, together you can include someone in your plans who otherwise might not have anyone.
