When we love someone, it’s difficult to watch them endure pain or make choices that won’t get them what they ultimately want. Depending on our personalities, we will respond in numerous ways, so it’s important to identify our strengths and our tendencies.

You are bombarded with headlines every day. But you get to write the article. Your choices, responses, and decisions interchange with circumstances to create how your story ends. Every relationship you have is impacted by you, and how you observe it. Life isn’t about circumstance, it’s about who you are agreeing with.

This week, we tackle the subject of boredom. Boredom, believe it or not, can actually be a healthy signal in our lives! It's like a little nudge from our minds and emotions, telling us that things may need a change or a fresh perspective.

When helping people in their relationships, we find people continually asking for a deeper connection, so that their love, support, and companionship are received and reciprocal.

We’re going to look at a pattern of three words: Intention, Attention, and Vision.

Imagine seeing there's no such thing as a problem, just a lack of understanding. It seems, when it comes to resentment, we keep getting layer upon layer of understanding and how freedom is accessible!

Knowing that when you snip off the attachment to resentment, you can run faster and freer towards the rewards of life.

Deep down we all need and crave close connections to feel a sense of security and belonging in the world. Most of us would agree that our relationships are the most important thing throughout our lifetime. Unconditional love can’t rely on living by default. To move forward, intentional actions and making the decision to contribute to the strength of love in a relationship are highly important. That’s why it’s important to ask, “What’s the most important thing I can do at this point?”

Enduring love is a choice made through everyday actions. Love isn't just “a choice to sacrifice”. If our love is only a choice or obligation then it’s not yet what it ought to be. Without joy, it’s difficult to define the relationship as true love. Someone who cares, gives freely, is thoughtful and takes time connecting, and has joy in their sacrifices - This is the kind of friend I want to have and the kind of friend I want to be. This is the kind of spouse and parent I want to be. Because...

Without contentment, yikes, you’ll be in a constant state of waiting. Waiting for someone to change, waiting for someone to apologize, waiting for someone to defend you, waiting for someone to give you security, waiting for better stuff or more stuff and it’s definitely a trap.
