How they could've made better choice. Its fun activity..i love ur podcast, you are my twin im starting to feel. deep thinker, high standards, conservative godly, ur husband is lucky to have you mam.
another great thought in regards to the 7 universal emotions & what drives them... healthy married relationships is "not about being happy all the time, rather being able to work out conflicts."
best quote - "non-verbals are an expression of attitudes and emotions - one's frame of mind."
This was really good, help me to see where God is leading me in my struggling marriage as my wife continues with her affair. Open my eyes and understanding of forgiveness as a choice, as a daily journey to leave the baggage at the foot of the cross. Benefits me even of not reciprocated - "but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us." - Romans 5:8 Forgiveness... part of my healing. I even need to start the process of forgiving my wife's lover.
