 We often say, Happy Wife Happy life, as true as this is for marriages, that when the wife's happiness is assured life becomes happier in general there could be a healthier and appropriate perspective, a happy spouse leads to a happy house. This disposition that both spouses are concerned and dedicated to ensure each other's well being. 

In marriage, there should be mutual and reciprocal prioritization of the other. No spouse is more important in the relationship but each is as important to the other. How Beautiful marriage will be if we strive and continue to always have that awareness. Life as we know happens and we have the tendency to neglect or be so demanding of the other that we overlook to make our spouse feel loved. “Happy spouse leads to a happy house” can be more balanced because it treats happiness as something that belongs to both spouses, and therefore to the whole family
