Subject: [DailyDialogue #275] Sometimes Help Helps
"'And they lived happily ever after' is one of the most tragic sentences in literature. It's tragic because it's a falsehood. It is a myth that has led generations to expect something from marriage that is not possible."
-- Joshua Lievman
Most of us come into our partnerships with the misconception that it will be easy. "We are so in tune with each other, of course it be easy."
Yesterday, as Eddy and I were reflecting about our brief two-year history together, I had the impression that we have already come through some pretty difficult and important passages together: Reaching a willingness to commit, experiencing a serious car accident, moving together and spending time with extended family.
There is always more to work on. Right now, we aren't both pleased with our joint financial management. When we're having extended difficulty with an issue, we figure it's a good idea to get help from an independent person. So we decided to hire a financial counselor, with a background in both counseling and financial planning, who is paid by the session not by the sale.
Experiment: Dialogue about whether there is some area in your relationship in which the help of an independent third party might make a big difference.
Affirmation: We are attracting the resources and people into our lives to fulfill all our needs. The Daily Dialogue is published each day of 1998 by e-mail. Copyright 1998, Eddy Brame and Marty Crouch, All rights reserved.
