Marriage is an essential to live a life happily. Because there is a person who can understand you. Marriage is the place where you can share you emotion with another person. It is a mean by which you can enjoy your life.

Want to success in your life, then first judge yourself. What type of success you need. Everybody has an own concept of success. Therefore, everybody’s success is limited according to their idea.

Once your success definition is made, you need to improve yourself as per qualities. Sometimes, you try to get all qualities at once. But, it’s impossible. There is no an instant way to be successful truly in any field of life.

To be successful is a slow process. You are tested by many obstacles. You get an angry or upset if you don’t overcome difficulties. However, keep patience alive. Don’t lose it. Every obstacle makes you more advanced, more knowledgeable person in your field.

Success is not one time process. It is constant result of your positive thinking. Here come obstacles again. When you try to think positively, your invisible negative attribute keep away you from positive thinking. At that time, think positively with patience. You should do that frequently. Once you get habit of  positive thinking, no any external and internal negative things stop you for getting success.

Requirements of Healthy Relationship

Filed under: by Amol Chavan at 1:58 am

Foremost thing of any relationship is keeping trust on each other. It is the base of relationship. If it is not there, then it can be difficult to live two person together. It is the trust which soften our relationship. Sometime this trust is tested by various incidents in our life. At that time, you may understand that how much keeping trust on each other is important.

Though trust is foundation, other things are also required to maintain good relationship. Mutual understanding comes first after trust. Most people positively think that mutual understanding is difficult. Those people are kind of who want to rule others. These people cannot enjoy benefits of mature relationship.

Mutual understanding requires a clear communication. If you speak clearly with you partner or friend or any relatives, then it is more possibility to be understood. In any relationship, speaking clearly should not involve egoistic language. Because we all have ego by nature. It prohibits us to speak with others gently. Keep yourself at the place of another person and you can find what difficulties he or she faces. Help her or him to solve problems if it is possible to you. Otherwise, express you inability honestly. That is called mutual understanding. It is essential for protect your trust.

Honesty in relationship is important. Your sincerity towards relationship is tested when you accept your mistakes. If you are prompt in accepting your mistakes, then others respect you. To respect each other is vital for long term relationship.

At the end, only love cannot create good relationship. It should be supplemented with trust, mutual understanding and honesty. All these things we have inherently and should be developed with sensible attitude if we want good-soft-relationship with others.

When to take the keys.

Filed under: by sandra blake at 8:20 am

As our parents are aging they become more of a worry in the little details of life.  They become forgetful, however, that isn’t really just older parents as I sometimes have to make myself post it notes to remember the every day details of life.  It comes with age is what everyone seems to say. 

The most painful discussion in our household has been when to finally take the keys from our eighty-four year old father who is still very much in control of his facilities and stays very active in life and is in very good health.  He still lives by himself and can care for himself without the slightest bit of help.  The problem is his reaction times are slower and his driving has become somewhat of a problem.  He is still able to drive and we just worry that he is going to become involved in an accident as he is slower to respond and he gets frustrated in difficult traffic. 

The problem is that by taking away his keys we will be taking away a good part of his freedom and thus we are going to put him into a depression of sorts.  He is very capable right now of being independent and the question comes as do we take that away or wait it out and let him continue driving as it does not appear that he is going to stop on his own.

The other problem would that he would then have to rely on someone else to take him where he wants to go.  This would be a problem for him as he has always made his own way, perhaps he will come around but if not it is going to be a challenge to us all to finally have to say enough is enough and take them for his safety and others.

Growing love

Filed under: by Terri Kilgo at 12:16 pm

I wonder to myself quite often how people make the decision to marry so difficult and yet the decision to walk away and divorce is so easy. I remember the day my husband and I first started dating. I remember our first date, the first time he said “I love you” , and I will always remember the day he asked me to make his life complete and be his wife. I of course said yes without hesitation. I never doubted my committment to him for a minute. I have never questioned whether or not he was the other part of my soul. I set out in my marriage with an understanding of what was expected of me and I of him. Being a child of a divorced couple I knew first hand what that entailed from the childs perspective. I made a promise to myself to never settle for less than I deserved; not to say that I am so great that I was not to suffer any heartaches, but that I knew what I wanted in a partner and would not make exceptions. I find it so hard to believe that when you truly love someone that it really ever goes away. I told my soon to be husband at the time that if he had any doubt about the fact that he would be looking at me in sixty years on the front porch in a rocking chair to back off now and not make the committment to marry me, because what I wanted I wanted for my life not for a little while just for the fun of it all.

     I look around today and see that more and more people give up and walk away without ever looking back. No thoughts on how this will affect them for the rest of their lives. I do understand that there are some things people just cannot overcome in marriage and it ends in divorce no matter how hard the fight. I do not however, understand those that run away when things get rough. My husband and I have had some very difficult times in our marriage; some of them are things I have seen others not be able to escape. Everyday I thank God for the blessings he has provided in my life and my husband is at the top of that list. Do not get me wrong he gets on my nerves, aggravates me, and just to be honest he has made me more angry than any other person has ever been able to; but you know what at the end of the day I love him, that part never changes. We do not go to bed mad, we talk about everything. He knows when I am hurt, angry, happy, sad, or worried before I even open my mouth. He can finish my sentences and I can his as well. We are one being he and I and I would never trade one minute of what we have today with anyone I know or know of, not even the bad times. All the good times and bad have made us what we are today.

I remember hearing from someone “I will give them six months”. That sounds so funny to me now. We will soon be celebrating 14 years of marriage. I would say that in todays world marrying at the ripe old age of twenty most last about six months. I am proud to say that we overcame all the odds and we are stronger now than we were when we first married. I also know that as much as I loved him the first year I never imagined I could love him more; however I was wrong it grows bigger, and deeper everyday I am blessed to be his wife and mother of his children. I think that when you decide to marry someone you should just know without hesitation whether or not he or she is the other matching part of your soul. Those that you can literally feel even when they are thousands of miles away are part of your soul.

     Do we argue? Of course. Do we disagree? Of course. Are we stubborn? Of course. Does it matter? No. We just know……….and that is all that matters.
