00:00:00 --> 00:00:01
			You know, many people think that it's their
		
00:00:01 --> 00:00:03
			spouse's responsibility
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:05
			for their happiness, but that's not true. We
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:08
			are responsible for our own happiness. Our spouse
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:09
			is there to help us meet that, but
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:11
			they're not responsible for it. So that's why
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:13
			it's very important that we take time out,
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:15
			especially in the morning before we start our
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:17
			day. We take some time 20 minutes, 30
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:19
			minutes to get in the right frame of
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:19
			mind,
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:22
			to be in a good mood. So that
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:24
			way we show up at a higher level.
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:26
			We spend time with the Quran reflecting over
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:29
			the Quran, understanding what our purpose is. We
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:31
			spend time in solitude with Allah
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:34
			so that we have the right mindset going
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:36
			into our day. And other general things that
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:38
			will put us in a good mood, that
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:39
			will make us be happy rather than being
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:41
			reactive to what's happening.
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:44
			This way we take responsibility for our mood,
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:45
			and we show up at a higher level,
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:47
			and that is only gonna add value to
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:48
			the marriage.
