Up and down. Up and down.
Marriage is a bit like a seesaw.
In our marriage we have days when it’s simply heaven on earth. The love, companionship, support and friendship. The inside jokes, Saturday morning pancakes and snuggling up to the Neighbours omnibus {yes we love our Australian soaps}. I truly cherish it and appreciate marriage for what it is. Marriage is good.
And then there are days when there are arguments and differences and you wonder to yourself, who is this person?
Like a seesaw it takes two to make it work. A seesaw with just one person contributing isn't fun at all. Neither is marriage. Both of us need to fully participate to enjoy the ride.
Happy Valentine's Day!

Great blog...The picture also made me realize that just as the person who is on the "down part" of the see saw needs to lift their feet a bit in order for the person on the higher part to lift them up; in arguments the person who is hurt/wronged, needs lift their emotions a bit in order to be healed.
ReplyDeletelol...does that make any sense? Feel like I am rambling...
Totally makes sense, it's a really good analogy.
