Needed Balance

Sticking it out for many years in a marriage can bring a new perspective. One eventually sees that the different approach our spouse takes to life's situations can provide needed balance to our one-sided approach.

I reached out in a small way to a friend with whom there'd been some strained feelings.  When telling my spouse what I had done, I questioned his opinion regarding my actions, saying, "You don't think it was necessary?"  He shrugged and said, "That's why God has us together," indicating that my actions were positive steps that he would not have initiated.

 Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up. Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone? [Ecclesiastes 4:9-11]
