The question was presented to me whether fighting all the time and making up keeps the spark in a relationship. Perhaps it can, but when those sparks blow a fuse then you'll have a whole new set of issues. It took some time before I truly understood that there is a time to speak and a time to be silent. When you're able to discern between the two, the better off you'll be. Let's face it. We ALL have issues and how we deal with them measures our level of maturity. If you decide that you must snap, crackle and pop about any and everything that bothers you, trust and believe - you will be miserable. Point, blank, period. Thinking before you speak and not allowing small things to effect you will benefit you much more in the end. For the good book states, "Do not be rash with your mouth, and let not your heart utter anything hastily before God. For God is in heaven, and you on earth; therefore let your words be few" (Ecclesiastes 5:2).
