About My Marriage

I've often thought I have the perfect life. Good job with good money. Beautiful house, 2 beautiful, healthy kids. But it's not perfect. My wife and I have a long way to go to make it perfect. But were committed to each other for the long run and committed to making it work. This blog is about our progress, discussing my thoughts and feelings, dreams and aspirations of our marriage.

Day 8 - Jealousy


Today's chapter is about jealousy. We should not be envious of others, especially our spouse. I do not think I'm jealous of her or much of a jealous person in general. Sure, I know I've been jealous of my boss because I have wanted his position. Overall, i don't think this one is much of an issue.

Love is as strong as death, its jealousy unyielding as the grave. It burns like blazing fire. --Song of Solomon 8:6 NIV

Dare:
Take yesterday's list of negative attributes and discreetly burn it. Then share with your spouse how glad you are about a success he or she recently enjoyed.

The negatives are gone.

Sas, I hope you see me as very supportive for you. I think a big achievement you'll be getting to soon at work is not having to pay into retirement anymore. That is huge! I am so proud of you as a teacher. I look up to you. Being around you as a teacher makes me look forward to the day when I can be one. I hope I can be half as good a teacher as you are.
