The Marriage Conversation Blog: Sully
http://marriageconversation.blogspot.com/2009/01/sully.html
Sunday, January 18, 2009. Many of us were deeply moved by the stories of flight 1549 United Airways and its pilot "Sully." His competence was flawless, his presence impeccable, and his humility touched our hearts. He did, he said, "what we are trained to do.". What we came into marriage with was perhaps a romantic notion - if we were 'in love' and could stay 'in love' everything would be alright. Nothing wrong with being 'in love.' Feels good, opens communication, deepens commitment. May I no...In love' ...

Tuesday, January 27, 2009. They have no problem claiming their love, keeping it current or laying in the sun happily while the kids nurse and flop around themselves. I was reminded of the first lines of a beautiful poem by David Whyte . "And we know when Moses was told,. In the way he was told,. Take off your shoes! He grew pale from that simple. Reminder of fire in the dusty earth. His complicated way of loving again. And was free to love in the same way. Posted by Stephen Frueh PhD. Many of us were dee...

Monday, February 09, 2009. Tell her what she doesn't know you know. In all conversations, I confess, I am addicted to listening for-'what's missing.' Not so much what's being said as what's not being said. "We have a good marriage," a woman recently told me and then went on to offer a kind of unsolicited qualification. "Of course we have our struggles," she added and I listened. Couples know a lot about their partners but perhaps conversations could be expanded if they told each other what each other doe...

The Marriage Conversation Blog: March 2008
http://marriageconversation.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 18, 2008. A CEO called me early this morning. He was frustrated. His VP of sales 'wasn't getting it done.' She spent too much time on 'housekeeping' items - things that needed to be done around the office but that took her time away from selling product. He said 'I tried to explain to her that her numbers were what kept us alive. Without her meeting her numbers the best run office in the world would be out of business.'. The CEO did this: he worked on solving the issues that got the attent...

Tuesday, May 20, 2008. Growing into your life. This morning I read a short article by a positive thinker person. A good and uplifting piece. But one thing he said caught me. It was this: "you can't change the past. You can only come to terms with it. You can change the future.". Change the past and you'll change the present. In fact, changing the way you relate to the past is the only way you can fully live in the present and living in the present opens the door to loving in a way that is true. What we c...

Friday, November 21, 2008. Marriage, Money and Mayhem. A crisis in most cases depends for its severity on your own perception. Some people lose a job and see it as a catastrophe, others might see it as an opportunity. I know a very wealthy man who owns and operates restaurants. I once asked him what he'd do if his (first) restaurant burned down. He said "I'd throw a party! It would give me the freedom to try something new.". Money is a 'shape shifter' and can easily seduce us into feeling like we're orph...
