"Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape." ~Anonymous

Relationships require stretching. In fact, there may be no more important place in life to practice and improve our flexibility than in our hearts. Getting over the belief that our own desires are the most important consideration at any given moment is a lifelong practice in flexibility. Realizing that our relationship is our most gentle and perfect teacher to get beyond our own individual desires is at once its purpose and its gift. Learning to show up for your spouse in ways that are meaningful is how you build safety into your marriage.
