4. Happy couples are quick to forgive.
A lack of forgiveness quickly leads to bitterness and happiness can’t coexist with bitterness. If you want a happier marriage (and a happier life in general), stop keeping score and stop holding grudges. Let grace flow freely. God offers forgiveness to us freely because of what Jesus did to pay the price for our sins. We’re called to give that same amazing grace to each other. When we truly experience the power of forgiveness (both giving and receiving it), true happiness is a natural response.
