The Changing Face of Marriage
Marriage can be a partnership of living out a sacred bond of
being and doing who we are. In order for this to occur it
requires a joint commitment from the heart to share one
another's life materially, physically and spiritually without
giving up your own being.
In the past, the wedding ceremony was considered the end
achievement. Now we know it is truly the beginning. Marriages
made to fix you, save you, or take care of you set up
co-dependent relationships that are difficult to maintain at
best and often lead to failure.
If you are considering marriage, ask yourself the following
questions:
-
What is my partnership with myself like?
-
Do I put my partner's needs before mine? If yes, how
often?
-
What do I do to express my discomfort with something that
isn't working?
-
Do I ask for what I want?
-
Do I take other people's responses to what is going on too
personally?
