February 20, 2012
It's been ages since I've blogged. I admit, I'm put off by technology and with my website, it takes a few steps to get to this blog page. Enough to have me put it off. Lately, I've been re-reading ScreamFree Marriage, by Hal Edward Runkel. ScreamFree Marriage has been re-published under the title The Self-Centered Marriage. I read ScreamFree Marriage and trained with Hal on the ScreamFree approach some time age. I'm a huge fan of ScreamFree Parenting, Hal's first book. The idea of becoming a calm and confident person, and bringing that forth into all of your relationships is one of the critical messages in his books. I've got ScreamFree Marriage on my night table because marriage is the joining of 2 ever evolving people. It is anything but stagnant and certainly something I need to stay fresh on. One of my favorite quotes from The Self-Centered Marriage is, "The most successful couples are those who continually see themselves as two separate individuals, continually choosing to commingle, overlap, and join their lives." Would love to know how you are bringing yourself into your marriage.
