Free Marriage Advice
I'll tell you the most important lesson I've learned in 18 years of marriage: Take a deep breath and make a heartfelt apology. It really works wonders on anger and irritation and diffuses tension like nobody's business. Believe me, you cannot make an argument that works so well as an apology. This does not make you a doormat. It makes you a peacemaker.

Funny, this advice works for siblings that have had a "knock-down-drag-out", as well as for married folks.

I have some free marriage advice...eat more chocolate. Think about it. Who stays angry when they eat good chocolate? No one. You might be angry when you take that first lucious bite but then once the goodness starts hitting the taste buds then the nerves and receptors begin to jump for joy all that is bad begins to fade away. That will save marriages because it will not only bring a great deal of joy but if you get enough chocolate in the right pie-hole then you also get immediate silence. Being a peacemaker is good...chocolate is better!
