Give time for love

During my 25 years as a marital therapist, I have seen hundreds of people disappointed over unfulfilling relationships. I have seen passion turn to poison. I have grieved with patients for the love they lost or never found.

“We seemed to love so much, but now it’s gone,” one woman lamented to me. “Why do I feel so lonely every night even when he is right there beside me? Why can’t marriage be more than this?”

It can. I was once invited to the 60th-anniversary celebration of a remarkable couple. I asked the husband, Peter, if he ever felt lonely and wondered where the love between him and Lita had gone. Peter laughed and said, “If you wonder where your love went, you forgot that you are the one who makes it. Love is not out there; it’s in here between Lita and me.”

I know we can love deeply, tenderly and lastingly. I have seen such love, and I have felt such love myself. Here are the law I have discovered for such lasting and loving relationships—put time where love is.

A fulfilling marriage begins when two people make time together their No.1 priority. If we hope to find love, we must first find time for loving.

Unfortunately, current psychology rests on the model of the independent ego. To make a lasting marriage we have to overcome self-centeredness. We must go beyond what psychologist Abraham Maslow called “self-actualization” to “us-actualization”. We have to learn to put time where love is.

Many couples have experienced a tragic moment that taught them to value their time together. One husband related how he sat trapped in his car after a crash. His wife was outside, crying and banging on the window. “I thought I was going to die before we had enough time together.” He told me. “Right then I promised to make the time to love my wife. Our time is our own now, and those hours are sacred.”

One unforgettable experience

Many experiences which stored in our memories have influenced the track of our life greatly. For instance, the first time to cook for the family, the praise receiving from one strict teacher and the experience of hunting for a job, all those experiences we have undergone are precious nutrition for the complete development of us. But what is the most unforgettable one which has had great impact on your thought or perception? We have come across this question since middle school or even primary school, but have you ever consider this topic seriously? However, one thing happened in my college life changed my understanding about friendship.

I have always planned to get a profession as a teacher since I came to this university as an English major. Many reasons contribute to this decision: the working environment are so familiar to me that I do not need to spend time adapting to it, the influence from my relatives for some of my cousins are working as a teacher, the comparative stability of being an English teacher and so on. Thus I applied for the Teacher Qualification Test during the examination week of our school. After the examination our college would move to another campus to go on our forth year’s education.

Unfortunately, the time planned to participate in the compulsory remedial class was collided with the time to move. There was a contradiction that if I went to attend the remedial class I could not arrange my possessions, and if I chose to skip the class that would means I could not attend the test and I could not have the opportunity to apply for that position. Faced with this difficult choice, I intended to find anyone who can help me arrange the moving affairs. I looked through my phone number book and tried to find someone I can depend on. However, the things seemed not as I expected as I almost could not find one friend who can help me deal with this problem. I felt very depressed and lay on the bed hopelessly. Many happy scenes happened in my high school came to my mind while my eyes moistened and my thoughts were all about one of my best friends who is far away from me.

Then I started to think about my university life where I have spent almost three years. Frankly speaking, I have made some friends in this university especially through some activities, but almost no one can be regarded as my best friend. Maybe it is the cultural differences which made me could not accept them as my dependence as in my high school. I could not persuade myself to open my heart to them because we are not sharing some basic notions. It may be the problem of distrust which I have never noticed from myself. When I saw a group of friends walking and traveling together I was so envious that I even wanted to back home. However, I still hold the belief that someday I can find someone here with whom I can share my heart.

Friend is one who can share happiness and sorrows with you and he or she can be anyone in your life if you keep on believing and finding. Friendship is one of the basic elements of our life and we are looking for the right one who can fill satellite tv for pc in that place. When we feel lonely in a strange place it can warm our heart; when we are faced with some difficulties in life it can encourage us overcome them; when we reach the bottom of our life it can light our path and cheer us on. However, sometimes we should learn to mypadmedia depend on ourselves because we could not be the slave of friendship and we need to show our individuality.

Making Marriage Important

Then it may appear strange to speak about making marriage important for somebody that is single, even so, the building blocks for your marriage is build throughout all of your life, well, i believe it is good to speak about ways to prioritize that before you decide to say “I do.”

One of the ways you may make marriage a priority prior to the ring is by a little time to sit and pray and have God showing you what to find in a mate. Then begin praying for your mate and that God will build up those characteristics in them. Most of you may know I started a summary of traits when I was living in Kenya and began praying for my future spouse then. God blew me out of the water with the husband he blessed me with. It’s amazing what prayer are able to do!

One other thing to do during this time period is to maximize this time and don’t allow yourself to become too consumed in what is to come but to live in the present state you’re in. I believe many of us are guilty of saying, “I’ll do better at ____ when….” Marriage is a HUGE blessing, but as a single you are more free than you will ever be after saying I do to serve our creator, so be about His business and not all that the planet would have you think you needs to be worried about. Besides, now don’t you need a husband who wants to marry a woman who serves the Lord?

Find married women to spend time with. Enable them to using home and family and grow from them. Whether here’s your own mother or another wife/mother you understand. You may bless all of them with your business and let them be considered a Titus two woman who’s training a younger woman to enjoy her husband.

Guard your heart! I suggest everybody reads Emotional Purity for additional on this topic. And a request I implemented that helped me to guard my heart was I purchased a journal and I wrote out the things I wanted to tell my future husband/boyfriend/fiance throughout our courtship. That way I could feel like I was sharing the situations on my heart that I wanted to tell him, but it helped me to not give away too much of my heart before marriage. The openness you have in marriage and the safe place marriage creates for sharing are some things we don’t always guard to keep before marriage. I want to encourage you to make sure to guard the emotional purity of one’s marriage.

And what type of listing of advice about get yourself ready for marriage wouldn’t include guarding the physical purity of your future marriage. My hubby blessed me a great deal by doing this well. I pray that my sons and daughters and in-laws to be will all do this well. And throughout it all, remember: “No temptation has seized you, except that which is common to man. And God is faithful. For if you are tempted He will provide a way out.”

Simply a excellent day

Today was simply a excellent day, so please i want to count my blessings:

1) Personally i think good and don’t come with an allergy/sinus headache! Thankfully!

2) I made another jewelry sale on my Etsy site!

3) The children and I had a great time this morning at the Boonshoft Museum of Discovery.

4) All 4 of us had a yummy home-cooked dinner; meaning that the children stayed at the table and ate with us!

5) Luke went to bed at a decent hour AND is in his bed instead of on the couch! I was so relieved to not have to sit next to his bed until he fell asleep. I had to threaten him with locking his door if he didn’t stay put, and that worked! Here’s praying he’ll stay there through the night and that I can remain firm and consistent.

6) Lexie was her usual darling self. Then at 8:00 pm, she said, “Want to go night night,” so I put her to bed and she fell right to sleep. I’m hoping that she’ll always be that easy to get to bed!

7) My sweet hubby and I had a wonderful 7th anniversary yesterday. I feel so blessed!

Thank you, Lord, for the little things in life!

Yesterday I went shopping with my brother.On the way ,I saw a book-shop.All of a sudden,I found I haven’t went into book-shop for a long time.Then we took a stroll in the book-shop. In there I saw many many kinds of books. Especially, I can read many English literature in this book-shop.
Don’t know why, I read some books and didn’t realise the time until my brother reminded me. When we leaved the book-shop,I how hope I can have a myself library. If so ,I can have a read whenever I want . Though,now we can read any books on Internet .I also like reading natural books.This feeling can not be expressed by words.

1. Avoid grad school in the liberal arts

One in five English Phd’s find stable university jobs, and the degree won’t help outside the university.

2. Skip the law-school track

People who play sports earn more money than couch potatoes, and women executives who played sports attribute much of their career success to their athletic experience. You don’t need to be great at sports, you just need to be part of a team.

3. Play a sport

People who play sports earn more money than couch potatoes, and women executives who played sports attribute much of their career success to their athletic experience. You don’t need to be great at sports, you just need to be part of a team.

4. Take an acting course

Amos teaches executives to communicate authentically so that people will listen and feel connected. You need to learn to do this, too, and you may as well start in college.

5. Separate your expectations from those of your parents
Otherwise you wake up and realize you’re not living your own life.

6. Define success for yourself

Society defines success very narrowly. Rather than defining success as financial gain or accolades, define it in terms of individual interests and personal happiness,”says Robbins.

7. Learn to give a compliment

The best compliments are specific, so “good job” is not good. Practice on your professors. If you give a good compliment the recipient will think you’re smarter: Big payoff in college, but bigger payoff in the work world.

8. Start a business in your dorm room

It’s cheap, Google and Yahoo are dying to buy your website, and it’s better than washingdishes in the cafeteria. Note to those who play poker my online income system until 4a.m.: Gambling isn’t a business. It’s an addiction.

9. Work your way through college

Each experience you have can grow into something bigger. A great bullet on the resume for a junior in college.

10. Make your job search a priority

Jobs do not fall in your lap, you have to chase them. Especially a good one. Use spread sheets to track your progress. And plan early.

Which colour would you like?

Life is full of colors and different colors reflect different attitudes towards life. What is your favourite color? Are you in favour of those warm colours, such as yellow, orange, or red? If you do, you are likely to be an optimist, a leader, and an active person who enjoys life, work and excitement. Do you prefer those cold colors such as grey and blue? Then you may tend to be a pessimistic, quiet, and shy person, you would rather follow than lead. Is this true? Maybe. At least, this is what psychologists have told us, and they should know, since they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference, as well as the effect that colors have on human beings’ lives. They tell us that we do choose our favourite colors as we grew up, and we were born with our love for special colors. If you happen to love a special color, you were made to do this the moment you opened your eyes, or at least the moment you could recognize different colors.

There is no doubt that colors do have an impact on our moods. A yellow room can make most people feel cheerful and relaxed while a dark green one makes you feel cold and afraid. And a red dress brings warmth and pleasure to the saddest winter day. Of course, the color black will probably make you feel depressed. It is reported that a black bridge over the Thames River used to be the scene of more suicides than any other bridge in the area until one day it was repainted green, the number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply; perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.

Light bright colors make people not only happier but more active in their work. It is an established fact that students work better, harder and will make fewer mistakes when their notebooks and study tools are of these colors rather than black or grey.

So now do you know what kind of person you are belonging to? Just find your life color, and enjoy your life!
