Subscribe“At times it seems as if we know that the only tie which can bind us together now is one of white-heat living, the same kind of intensity one finds in lovers and mistresses.
We have unconsciously created a highly effervescent relationship within the security and peace of marriage. We are widening the circle of our sorrows and pleasures within the circle of our home and our two selves. It is our defense against the intruder, the unknown.”
The thing about the “unknown” is that it will ALWAYS be there. That is something you cannot control.
Your best defense is a good offense.
In sports, in marriage, in life.
Compromise, and compatibility, not perfection.
You must be best friends first before you can ever hope to make it in the long term sense. Soul mates come in all shapes, sizes, and they do not even have to be human: they could be your childhood pet, your favorite painting, a book that changed your life forever.
Life is in the details.
