Attitude Is Everything Your Words ( Even In Anger ) Do Effect Your Marriage
BY CHRIS BENTON
EVERYTHING you do stems from attitude . Attitude is the most important thing in life . As they say life is 98 % attitude and 2 % action . Most people who make it in life do so because they had the right attitude to make it . I say most because there are always exceptions .

Those kinds of attitudes will kill the family . I believe that God wants us to be happy but happy his way not the world ’ s way . Many people think material
