Hello readers, I hope everyone is well today. The weather here in wichita this morning is cool and foggy. Its a day of reflection.
Today I want to discuss marriage. Years ago I wanted to put a book together called "A housewife's recipes for a healthy marriage." I did a lot of research and spoke with alot of people on the subject, and then life's responsibilities got in the way and I had to put the book on the back burner. My life has calmed back down and I have the time to devote to the book again. I'm thirty-three years old and I know of someone every year that is getting a divorce. I'm just astounded at the amount of couples that are calling it quits. What is happening to our culture that this has become the norm? Does anybody take the sanctity of marriage and family seriously anymore? Or have the rules changed? What are peoples roles? What do we expect out of our partners? What do woman want and what do men want? So many questions go through my mind when I try to figure all of this out. What are the answers to theses questions and can we find a solution?
I would love to hear some feed back on this subject. Maybe you have some advice to pass down or maybe you have some opinions on why relationships are falling apart. I'm going to start my blogs with either some advice I've learned along the way or things that I have found that work for my relationship. I'm also going to posting certain questions or scenarios and would love to hear your opinions. I realize that so many books have been written on this subject, but I still find it very intriguing and feel that people are still searching for some answers. I feel that if we work together, maybe the answers will reveal themselves more clearly.
I hope everyone has a wonderful day and I look forward to your comments. Peace be with all of you.
Namaste

Hi Courtney,
Can't believe you found my blog, I asked Diana if she could find it but she couldnt.
Well, when it comes to relationships crashing, I do have quite a bit of experience. There are many reasons why people call it quits, but I think the main reason is that they can't put it back together again when it has been broken. If the spouse is an abuser, or unfaithful, these are two main reasons for leaving.Other than those two reasons, it must be in order to keep a marriage together the couple must have faith and trust in the other person. Let the little things go, and don't make mountains over mole hills, as the saying goes. Some things can't be fixed, but as long as what is happening within a marriage is not harming the participants, then I believe the relationship can be a lasting one.
You and Phil are in love with one another, and I think this is the main reason why your marriage will last for the rest of your lives, and I am very happy for you and Phil. I love you.
