The fullness of love is definitely expressed in a relationship.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14378935912765589637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4626951033245226300.post-81716310510706999102010-01-29T16:54:08.945-08:002010-01-29T16:54:08.945-08:00I don't know much about love.

I know what it feels like to break someone's heart and I know what it feels like to have my heart put through the wringer.<br /><br />I am glad that you know about these things though. I think you're an alright guy. Also, if ashley ever leaves you, i will love you.tutatarabuelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10098195003755767173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4626951033245226300.post-34797664872671447382010-01-28T13:42:20.346-08:002010-01-28T13:42:20.346-08:00David,

I started reading another Personal Finance Book Rich Dad Poor Dad. Once I am finished I will look into the list you gave me. I think I might try some self-giving this week. It always helps the marriage. I guess eventually it might become natural if we practice it enough, but it seems in my human nature it is so unnatural.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14378935912765589637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4626951033245226300.post-64753854288461244152010-01-28T11:39:01.414-08:002010-01-28T11:39:01.414-08:00Good post Matt.

If you care about someone else and their well being you have to release your concerns about your own well being the the extent that you will care for another's. If we are in a relationship for our own benefit, it seems that it is only a matter of time before our selfish ways try to twist and shape the relationship to be more about ourselves. If this happens for too long, I'm convinced the marriage relationship will not work. Self-giving is the one thing I've seen that willing truly move a relationship deeper. I do like using the term self-giving rather than self-sacrifice, because it seems like I enjoy using the word sacrifice a little too much and can make myself a martyr instead of give what is good about me to my wife. Like, I sacrificed some reading time to do the dishes doesn't always seem the most loving or giving, even if it feels like a sacrifice, maybe it shouldn't if we look deep down an realize how much we love someone.<br /><br />Good to hear from you. Did you get any of the books I mentioned on facebook?David Henryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03258464309007708894noreply@blogger.com
