Daily Marriage Boost #15: Be positive about your finances. Count your blessings. Security is a state of mind, not a balance in your account.

Daily Marriage Boost #17: Being well-hydrated leads to well-being. Pour a glass of pure, clean water for both of you.
It's hard to think and act your best when your mind and body are not well-hydrated. Our edginess can make us short and cranky with others. Drink plenty of clean water to keep your systems functioning well.
Give him/her plenty of water, too!

These are all great tips, Lori. I especially like the ones dealing with physical touch....massages, kisses, and intimate time. All so important and bonding.

Thanks, Debbie. Physical touch *is* so vital. And I'm sorry that this is what you are missing with your loved one. I know that I am missing this with mine. I have pictures and memories of my precious little boy but I can't replace the physical touch we shared. Just holding him, running my fingers through his hair, kissing his face, caressing his arms.

Thanks, Lori. My body still remembers how it felt to touch him and what it was like to be touched by him. It is painful. One of the hardest things to live without.
He was always in pain in his back and neck and I gave him massages every day. It bonded us, and he gave back in return which was wonderful. I learned so much about the power of touch and how it showed love.

Daily Marriage Boost #19: Do something wonderful for the other "loves" in his life. Pets, children, parents, car, hobby, etc.
One of the most powerful ways to increase his love for *you* is to love and be loving to the other beloveds in his life.
