[Music]

0:27

once upon a time in a small town there

0:31

was a married couple who just couldn't

0:34

see eye to eye

0:38

they would fight like cats and dogs

0:43

over the smallest things

0:46

they were too proud to make amends

0:50

and too stubborn to break the ice

0:56

one day the husband decided to take

1:00

matters into his own hands

1:03

and swallow his pride

1:08

he wanted to extend an olive branch

1:12

to his wife and bury the hatchet

1:18

so he apologized for his behavior and

1:21

his wife moved by his gesture

1:26

decided to do the same and they were

1:30

finally on the same wavelength

1:35

from that day on they made a conscious

1:38

effort to turn over a new Leaf

1:42

and communicate better

1:45

there were like two peas in a pod

1:50

and had a heart to heart

1:53

Whenever there was an issue

1:56

they no longer spoke in riddles

2:00

or beat around the bush

2:04

they spoke their minds

2:08

and nipped their problems in the bud

2:12

with Clarity and honesty

2:16

in the end their relationship flourished

2:19

and they lived happily ever after

2:24

they learned the hard way

2:28

that communication is the key

2:33

to a successful relationship and they

2:36

made a pact

2:39

to always be open and honest

2:43

with each other they knew that actions

2:47

speak louder than words

2:50

and they lived by this motto

2:56

I hope that was useful and for more

until next time love and peace
