There are times that we would love to do something for our spouse, but we just are not quite sure what we should do for them. There are a lot of things we have on our minds throughout the day which can leave us forgetting those small comments made by our spouse that we try to remember to tag as “Oh good idea to do for them sometime.” Or sometimes our lives get a bit hectic and it can be weeks before we think of doing something sweet for our spouse.
These are just a few reasons why you and your spouse should each make a bliss list. (As some of you know I love lists…but that is not why we are doing this!) These lists are generated by each person and it is full of things that add to our sense of happiness. Put things on there like your favorite snack, favorite thing to do with your spouse, etc. Your list could look something like this:
~*~Bliss List~*~
Banana and Peanut Butter
Reading Before Bed
Cuddling
Quiet dinner
Crafting
Foot Rub
Organized Spaces
Holding Hands
After each one makes a list share the list with each other. After sharing the lists put them somewhere they can be seen by both parties. This will not only give you each ideas, but also remind you to do something for each other often. You can always add to the list as you think of more things!
The example list above could provide several ideas for you to do something sweet for your spouse. Pack them or bring them their favorite snack to work, do one of their chores so they have time to read that evening, take the time to cuddle with them or spend a quiet dinner with them, get them crafting supplies or certificate for a class and so on. Be creative!
The bliss list not only allows your spouse to do things for you that really will add happiness to your day, but also allows you to add happiness to their day as well! So go ahead and make your bliss list today!
How do you think a bliss list would help you and your spouse?
