I find I have to remind myself all the time to give the benefit of doubt…assume the best when it would be easiest to suspect the worst…I am learning to question regularly what I am feeding myself (mentally, in this case, although the physical food choices are important too)…the more I exercise this approach to life, the more natural it becomes….thankfully, even a slow learner and a late bloomer can learn to do better! ~ Sheila

no hero here — we are ALL a work in progress. For me what works is always asking — am I better off with him or without him? and I always come back to the same answer – so far – ha! MJ

What a gem, Sheila. Many thanks for sharing it! It resonates with me as well. When I attempt to squeeze too many, rather insignificant activities into one chunk of time, I become very self centered. A while ago, in a line-up at the grocery store, I huffed, “Oh man…I’ve got someone waiting for me.”

The woman in front of me said, “Yes, me too. I have three hungry children in the car in the parking lot.”

It put things in perspective! I was merely meeting someone to go OUT for dinner! If she hadn’t been in front of me already, I would have made sure was.

Yes, it was in the NYTimes “Diners Journal” a couple of days ago. I saw it and immediately posted it on the blog I’ve created to spotlight exceptional videos I occasionally find online. Take a look…I’m sure you’ll find several others there that you’ll also like:

Thank you Ann, for your encouragement! I stumble along in the dark sometimes, but then a little light appears! Maybe the best thing we have going for us is that we’ve stayed with it when it would have been easier, at times, to walk away. But it has been worth it, so worth it!
Feel free to share with anyone you like…if anything I say is of help, that is humbling and moving. ~ Sheila

Thank you MJ! You’re one of my heroes in this marriage business! You seem to have it down. I’m always a work in progress, but the main thing is…I’m still working on it! Thank you for the encouraging words, both here, and when you post about your relationship on your blog…helps to know how others make it work! ~ Sheila
