Conscious Choice
Today is the wedding date of my parents, 57 years ago. My mom passed on 20+ years ago after 30+ years of marriage, and my dad remarried a couple of years afterwards. He was married the 2nd time for almost 20 years, before his wife died. For couples to remain together these days for such lengths of time is not as common as it was in my parents’ generation.
However, back then, couples remained together through thick and thin. Most women didn’t feel they had a choice to leave if their husband turned out to be totally different from the man they thought they’d married, or they discovered who they truly were or even if it was an abusive marriage. Men were similarly boxed in: they had the role – and pressure – of breadwinner. Of course, couples married “for better or worse, for richer or poorer...” and divorce was not really permitted.
I am grateful that these days we can all consciously choose what we want in life, in a partner, in a marriage. This permits great freedom. It also requires taking responsibility. Are you up to it?
Are you up for creating the marriage of your dreams? You can, you know.
Your thoughts and your intentions are powerful and creative. You need to be clear in both if you are to actualize your heart’s desire. It’s not the easier way, but it sure is the more fulfilling one. And, it starts right after the engagement when you forge ahead on your wedding planning project.
When you consciously choose and create for your highest good, your being married for decades will be meaningful and based on true values and not because you felt you didn’t have the freedom to live the life and be with The One you wanted.
Freedom. Choice. Responsibility. Joy.
It’s up to you.
