Many couples fall in love, marry, and assume that the job is completed. They tend to feel that everything else will work out automatically. But hardly anything could be further from the truth. A successful marriage does not come spontaneously or by chance. Instead, a happy marriage-the complete marriage- involves two people working out small difficulties as well as the big ones.
We used ladder to illustrate growth in the marriage relationship. The two upright sides of the ladder stand for the husband and wife, and its rung represents something that draws and holds them together in inseparable companionship. The lowest rung is physical attraction, and the highest rung, pure love for God. Each rung of the ladder depends on the other rungs, and thus all become important in order to maintain the unity of the ladder of a complete marriage.
Surely, it takes two to tango Dharms.
