On the Same Wave Length

Are you on the same wave length as your spouse? Can you read the signs and body language without them saying too much? Yesterday we had such a situation. In the early afternoon I went out to my husband in the garden and said, ‘What are you going to do this afternoon?‘ He mentioned a few things that needed doing and asked me what I planned to do. I also mentioned a few things I needed to get to. The trouble was it was such a beautiful sunny day I didn’t feel like being stuck inside doing them. However I … Continue reading →

Soul Mates?

Is your spouse someone with whom you can share the innermost secrets of your heart and know you will not be judged, ridiculed or condemned? Is this what you are for your spouse – someone that he or she can always turn to – that they don’t have to think before they speak how will they react if I tell them this? This is the freedom and acceptance we should have with each other if we are really soul mates. ‘A friend is one to whom we may pour out all the contents of our heart, chaff and grain together, … Continue reading →

Thoughts on Soul Mates and Single People

In the Single Side of Things article I wrote in as part of my analysis of Today’s “Why I Got Married, Why I Stayed Single Series”, I ended by saying I didn’t really buy that the single women interviewed were truly happy with their decisions to stay single.

They’re the best of friends and it’s impossible to think of the one without the other. They just naturally go together.

Finding “The One”

Finding that special person that you wish to spend the rest of your life with is not always an easy task. Some of us are lucky enough to find our mate when we were not even looking. Others, such as Courtney, found her mate in her dreams. However, some people spend years searching and wondering if the right person will ever come along. When thinking about your ideal mate you must also think about yourself. We can easily get wrapped up in thinking of the world’s idealistic person rather than the one that best matches our personality and life. Begin … Continue reading →

The Dream: How I Knew Wayne Was the One

When I was 15, I had a dream unlike any I’d ever had before. I’ve never been able to recall most of the specifics, not even right after I woke up. I don’t remember who I was with, what we were doing, or where we were. But it wasn’t the specifics that made it important. It was the feeling it invoked that made it stand out. At the very end, right before I woke up, I was introduced to someone who was supposed to change my life and become the most important person in it. I couldn’t see his face. … Continue reading →
