This is in reference to the post on Nov 11.
Let's imagine we're running a long distance race (21 km) instead of a marathon (42 km, in order to get to the finish line won't we have to push ourselves and tell our body and mind that we can do it? We will sum up the energy and courage to complete the race trying to finish within a certain number or timing. When we achieve that, we feel elated and tell ourselves "I've done it, YES!" Certainly that involves plenty of time, dedicated practice, pain and courage.
Let's put that into our marriages context - isn't this a race too that we want to run till the end? But why is it that most couples take the easy way out of breaking up upon onset of few misunderstanding? Instead of ironing out the differences, we provoke and hurt each other further, eventually imploding within ourselves and forget about how we actually took time to build the strong foundation of togetherness before. Goals built together seem so distant now and eventually falls apart.
I'm sure all of us love our other half just as ourselves. Let's use that time, dedicated practice, pain and courage to see & work out to the completion of this wonderful journey we were committed to initially.
