Do You Operate as One?

I was in thought yesterday thinking about how marriage means two become one. Then the divorce percentages came to mind. I couldn't understand how if marriage is two becoming one, then how come it goes back to being two in a divorce. Then the answer occurred to me!! Those marriages that are ending must have never became one. It's simple really. The way we become one in marriage is by subtracting our selfish wants. We don't hold each other to higher standards than we hold ourselves. We take care of each other. I mean let's get real, when was the last time you didn't take care of yourself?? I'm sure you ate, showered, and relaxed at some point today. Marriage is about team work, compromising, and sacrifice. In working with you spouse, your marriage becomes smoother. Not to say there won't be those rough spots, but with team work comes support. Support and become one if you aren't already.

Exercises: Try and see if you operate in your marriage as one.

                Be selfless and complaint free for just one day and see if you flow better with your spouse.

                 Stop Expecting so much out of the other when you don't expect that much even from yourself
