Welcome! 歡迎! Mabuhay! 반갑습니다! Bienvenue!
On the right-hand side of this page, you’ll see a sidebar titled “Where Our Members Live.” I do my best to update this the moment I see a new Happy Wife join this club from a country not previously listed. Imagine my surprise (and delight) when I woke up this morning and needed to add 20 new countries. Yep, you read that right, TWENTY.
One of the things I love most about this Club is it stretches across the Atlantic, Pacific, Indian and Southern Oceans (we’re still working on finding members in Antarctica ) and encompasses so many different cultures with so many differences but joined together by one common thread: our love.
What makes each of us happy and what causes us to be delighted in our husbands and families may vary greatly, but what is the same is we know what feels right to us. We know what love feels like to us.
Each of us knows what makes us happy. If you visited our home for a week, you’d probably be bored out of your mind! Although Keith and I love to have fun and we spend more time laughing than probably anything else (he just cracks me up), we’re pretty simple people.
I remember once being courted by an executive producer to be a part of a reality show. Keith and I laughed so hard at the thought of it because half the time we’re just snuggled on the couch talking to each other. We’re boring! The cameramen would absolutely fall asleep or start playing Angry Birds on their iPhones.
Needless to say, our lives would probably not work for most of you. But it works perfectly for us. Likewise, two of our closest friends have one of the most wonderful and loving marriages we know. They’re also the most adventurous people we know. Prior to having children, they’d regularly go backpacking throughout the world. No hotel reservations. No plans. Just an airline ticket and two backpacks. They even did that throughout Germany during World Cup. Can you imagine? But that is what makes them happy. Keith and I would absolutely lose our minds if we attempted to follow their path to happiness and they’d lose theirs if they attempted to follow ours.
We’re all so different. But alike. We’re similar in that the pursuit of happiness is our birthright and we’ve chosen to take advantage of it. So to all the new members of this Club: Welcome! Bienvenue! 歡迎! Willkommen! Benvenuto! 반갑습니다! Seja bem-vindo(a)! Bienvenido! We hope you’ll find great resources on here to not only strengthen your marriage but to enjoy it more and more each day.
Until tomorrow…make it a great day!
