You've had a full day, possibly a very rough day. The rats were definitely winning the rat race at work. You can't wait to be reunited with your spouse who you haven't seen since early that morning. But when you greet each other, what does the scene look like? Would an outsider even have a clue that you were married? Are you immediately engrossed in talking about the cable going out again or that you've run out of diapers? Consider this idea: what about a 30-second kiss when you say hello....or even those times when you say goodbye? That may sound like no big deal, but 30 seconds is a pretty long time. In other words, that's a quality kiss!
A long passionate kiss is just one way to re-connect. The point is to give your best to your spouse when you greet each other or send each other off into battle. A quality demonstration of affection is a simple but important act of being intentional towards the one you love most. Communicate your love for that life partner as often as you can and you'll grow more in your overall intimacy with that person. It very well could turn out to be one of the favorite parts of your day. In fact, you might find yourself often "forgetting" your important papers just so you can come back and get another 30-second kiss! (One warning: the surgeon general has determined that 30-second kisses can become habit forming and lead to other serious marital expressions).
