While on Facebook today, I stumbled upon the blog post "the 15 Second Kiss" from the bloggers of Fierce Marriage. Fierce Marriage is written by a blogging couple who have been married for over ten years. Their blog is focused on marriage and love, and keeping things healthy. I know, I know...I'm not married, but I hope to be someday. I also think it's important to know how to keep a good relationship going, and to keep the fire going when you've been together for a long time.
I clicked the link to the 15 Second Kiss. The concept isn't really all that difficult. Ryan (the husband of the blogging team) had met a couple who had been married for many years. When he asked the man what his secret was to staying with his wife for so long, he responded with "a daily kiss that lasts for at least 15 seconds." What a response! He claimed that you can't fake a 15 second kiss. You're forced to make a connection with your partner!
When a relationship is new, you can't help but want to be close to your partner. As time goes by, sometimes we forget how incredible the other person is, because we're just completely consumed with life. But...if you're forced to kiss your husband/wife/boyfriend/girlfriend for 15 seconds or more, you're forced to be reminded of why you fell in love with him or her in the first place!
I really encourage you to read the Fierce Marriage blog. They really discuss everything, from a male perspective, female perspective, finances, sex, commitment, and more.
