Five Freedoms

Relationships are not always easy. We as human beings make things difficult even when we think we are making things better. So I tried to think in my wife's shoes, and that was a feat. I hope I can share some insight with you, not to tell you what to do, rather to give you ideas that hopefully will be foundational building. This will be a short hub, so take the five minutes and ponder the thoughts I am putting out there.

Five Freedoms:

1) the freedom to see what I see

2) freedom to say what I feel

3) freedom to feel

4) freedom to ask what one wants

5) freedom to take risks

Love is a feeling

Marriage is a contract

Relationship is work

I have learned, and I am still learning, if my marriage is successful then respect and understanding on both sides keeps on feeding the commitment. If we lose understanding it turns to disrespect, and that is a formula for disaster.  I hope that I continue to learn, and not become complacent in my role as husband and a dad.  

Thanks for dropping by, promised it would be short.
