Take a loving path for the journey of a lifetime.
So much planning and
attention goes in to organising a wedding that sometimes preparing for the
marriage can be overlooked. It’s easy
to assume that your love for each other will take care of the relationship and
for a while that’s true, but a relationship is a journey and the more prepared
you are, the better you’ll cope if something goes wrong.
The
Foothills
The early stage of
the relationship is a taste of how good it can be. Working on your
communication skills, understanding how relationships work and deciding how you
want your relationship to grow, will strengthen, sustain and support you
throughout the journey. This is a
really good time to share your dreams, your hopes, your goals.
The
Incline
If the going gets
tough, remember the great work you did at the start! Always be willing to re-evaluate and discuss the values,
pace and direction of the relationship.
Remember, to reach your destination you need to work together.
The
Turning Point
There comes a
point when a misunderstanding can decide the outcome of the journey. A healthy
relationship needs at least one person willing to communicate about a
problem. It’s vital to istrengthen positive feelings by expressing them and address negative feelings so they
can be healed.
Carry
On Regardless
If good
communication skills are lacking, the journey becomes hard work and the loss of
connection causes unnecessary suffering.
The
Higher Path
A loving
commitment to mutual success and wellbeing burns through any clouds that threaten
to block your view and your original vision of the relationship.
Happy travels!
