Every Couple's Dilemma: To Be Truthful? Or To Protect Feelings?
There are only two kinds of marriages - truthful and protective. You cannot be both at the same moment in time. They are a dilemma in the same way that it cannot be both night and day at the same time. We have no choice but to give up one in order to have the other. I cannot protect you from what you don’t want to hear, and also be truthful about what’s really going on inside me. When you first got married, you started out aiming to be truthful. You told each other how you really felt, what you really thought and what you really wanted. You felt safe and love blossomed.

The Four Basics of Deciding to Stay Married or Get Divorced
I feel prompted by the Holy Spirit to reach out to both of you. My intention in this note is to summarize the basics of deciding to say married or get divorced – what’s going, what your choices are and where things can go for you. Basic #1. You both appear to have concluded the status quo doesn’t work anymore. Marriage is essentially a cooperative agreement to live together under certain common terms, conditions, expectations and values. I hear you both saying, “These terms and conditions don’t work for me anymore.” That means you need a new deal.

Near and Far define two opposite styles of "driving" decisions in your marriage by using or NOT using your personal power and authority.

The long term effect is a transformation of your love relationship that is both emotional and spiritual in nature. Are you Near or are you Far?

Defining Moments: What Creates A Successful Life?
Some of us treat each moment as if it's a scarce commodity, trying to get as much crammed in as we can. Others among us casually toss away the moment, like so much excess fluff. As a former Type Adriven corporate executive, I began to search for meaning in my life ten years ago, when I was thirty-four. Five years ago, I gave up my full-time business career in order to devote myself to living and teaching how to be present when it matters. Does the moment define the life? What is the difference between a great life and a mediocre life?

Are You An Island Girl?
Elton John sang his famous song, Island Girl, in the 1970s, idolizing the women of sun, sand and surf. But there is another kind of Island Girl. These are women (and men) who share a common and often unspoken challenge: fear of intimacy. People who are afraid to let other people get too close to them often have this deep-seated fear. They protect themselves from emotional hurts by creating an island of safety around themselves. Yet this same island leaves them feeling isolated and lonely.
