...LOVE...

Over the past two months working on this blog, I have had good intentions going into each month.  Big plans with big books to read on the subject of the month.  Well I have learned something about myself in this process:  I cannot read "self help" type books.  I learn nothing and they kind of frustrate me.  So I am done with them.  I will have to get my insight from other sources and I welcome any input that can be given.  With that said, I have a few books to sell on the subject of LOVE if anyone is interested??? 

I really let the ball drop last month when it came to my goals.  Not a lot of premarital education going on on my part.  I have been so busy trying to plan this wedding in a very short amount of time, that I have let a lot of things get pushed aside, and this blog was one of them.  But the only one really getting hurt by that is me.  Anyway, a couple of days ago I was driving on the interestate and saw a billboard for this:  Twogether in Texas 
Texas now offers free marriage education classes around the state. Couples who complete a class will save $60 on their marriage license. The classes are at least 8 hours long and focus on helping couples develop communication and conflict resolution skills and other tools for a strong relationship.  I LOVE the idea of this and I am hoping I can talk B into taking a class with me. 

I know that even though the month is over, my education is not.  Loving someone is different than loving your life together, and the latter takes work and communication.  I have been blessed with this amazing man and we have a very special relationship with a great foundation to begin our lives together.  I know that we will have moments of agreement and we will have moments of distance, but what gives us our strength, is that no matter what we always come back to eachother.   I guess that is a pretty good start...
