woman-872815_960_720

Is this meant to be?  Should we stay together?  What’s the point?  Is divorce an option?  So many ask me those questions and more – they want my years of experience to guide their hearts.  The first thing we do is the following practice that I would like to share with you.  Take a moment, read through the questions, close your eyes, breath, open them, and begin answering them, one by one.  If you find you are still lost, remember – I am only an email away.

  1. Where am I judging myself as not good enough to make this work? Let that go.
  2. Where am I judging him as not good enough to make this work? Let that go.
  3. Where am I letting other people’s lives compare to mine? Let that go.
  4. Where am I letting other people’s opinions of what’s wrong, influence me? Let that go.
  5. Where am I forgetting to focus on what I do well as a wife? Focus on that.
  6. Where am I forgetting to focus on what he’s doing well as a husband? Focus on that.
  7. Where am I hanging onto the past, holding grudges, expecting the worse? Let that go.
  8. Where am I unwilling to dream again, allow in what I really want to have? Open to that.
  9. Where am I using my marriage problems as an excuse not to move forward in my life? Let that go.
  10. What is one conversation I could have with him/her that would set us free? Have it.

The doctor’s are saying the outlook is not positive and I want him to be there for his mother but I don’t think I am a big enough person to put our issues aside to endure her. Am I horrible? Answer: Yes, you are a horrible horrible person and you’re going to hell. KIDDING!!!!!! You are magnificent and courageous and willing to tell the truth… and I find that inspiring I think it’s very important for people to be given the option to spend time with their parents as they die because sometimes people die suddenly and you never get a chance to say something; yet, your boyfriend will be able to feel good about the time, effort, and presence he gives her. And it’s also very important for you not to stop living or choose something that’s not a contribution for you and sacrifice yourself for another only t...
