“I’ll start，” offered the wife. She took out her list. It had many items on it. Enough to fill 3 pages， in fact. As she started reading the list of the little annoyances， she noticed that tears were starting to appear in her husband’s eyes.
“What’s wrong？” she asked. “Nothing，” the husband replied， “keep reading your list.”
The wife continued to read until she had read all three pages to her husband. She neatly placed her list on the table and folded her hands over the top of it.
“Now， you read your list and then we’ll talk about the things on both of our lists，” She said happily.
Quietly the husband stated， “I don’t have anything on my list. I think that you are perfect the way that you are. I don’t want you to change anything for me. You are lovely and wonderful and I wouldn’t want to try and change anything about you.”
The wife， touched by his honesty and the depth of his love for her and his acceptance of her， turned her head and wept.
In life， there are enough times when we are disappointed， depressed and annoyed. We don’t really have to go looking for them. We have a wonderful world that is full of beauty， light and promise. Why waste time in this world looking for the bad， disappointing or annoying when we can look around us， and see the wondrous things before us？
一個男人與他的女朋友舉行了一場盛大的結婚典禮。
所有的親朋好友都來參加了他們的婚禮，見證他們的幸福。大家過得很愉快。
身著雪白婚紗的新娘楚楚動人，穿著黑色禮服的新郎英俊瀟灑。大家都看得出來，他們彼此相愛。
數月後，妻子提議：“我剛在雜誌上看到一篇文章，講的是如何鞏固夫妻感情。”她說：“我們各自在紙上羅列出對方的小缺點，然後一起找出解決的辦法，從而使我們的婚姻生活更融洽。”
丈夫很讚成。於是，他們各自在房間裏想對方的缺點。那天的餘下時間，他們都在想這個問題，同時也把所想到的寫了下來。
