 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?
Lucie is available for pre & post commitment consultations for
partnership enrichment.
