THE GREAT RELATIONSHIP PRINCIPLE
Show your love. Jesus of Nazareth counseled so long ago, "Don't hide your light under a bushel" and to not "bury your talents". In a less sagely fashion, a popular saying advises, "If you got it, flaunt it." In this case I agree. You don't need to be cocky and arrogant, but if you have a great love then let people see it. There are too many examples of bad marriages and cruddy relationships that are flaunted without shame before us. Let us show others that there are great models to learn from as well. Too many people just don't know what great love really looks like. Show it. Your partner needs to see it. People need to see it. People need to have hope that true love really does exist and that it is GREAT not because it is perfect, but because it is real and possible and attainable.
