Sound Counsel That Works
Mort, your advice is spot on. A change in actions and attitude, is the key to making a hopeless situation hopeful and healthy. It is no magic and takes a deliberate, conscious decision to work on yourself, change yourself and destructive behaviors. The benefits reveal themselves in time. No room for pettiness and keeping track of what is equal. Thanks to you and your daily reminder, I focused a positive attitude, small kindnesses and truly listening to my spouses grievances. No defending myself, or the reason for the misunderstandings. There would not be an accounting of who did what more, no injustice gathering but instead a goal of thoughtful actions that over time would result in a positive more loving relationship.
