Be proud of your marriage
Through our research, we've determined that how a couple views their relationship's history, what we call "The Story of Us," is a big factor in how successful and happy they might be going forward.
When discussing The Story of Us, we found that couples either “glorify the struggle” by being proud of the good times in their relationship and by making light of the bad, or they focus on their disagreements and look back on them with resentment.
In fact, when couples view their relationship's history in a negative light, it is one of our largest predictors of divorce.
So, are you proud of your marriage?
If you and your partner are able to glorify the struggle, then you're more likely to highlight the good times and have a happy relationship going forward.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!

Speed limits around NaeNae
Hi Neighbors, Just a heads up, I have just received a $170 fine for driving at 50km on Rata Street Naenae on a SUNDAY Morning. I wrote to NZTA pointing out and sending in a photo of sign stating that it was 30km on school days between those hours, but they said that the whole of Rata Street and some surrounding streets are 30km 24/7 and have been for over a year. Did I miss this been advised by council? Always good to be informed. Merry Christmas to all
