Imagine living together forever, happily ever after. What does it take for this to happen from day one to the last moments of our lives in this existence? What are the steps? Is it moment by moment process, or does it take a day month or a year or a decade for us to learn to act a certain way? Are we actors playing a role? Is it the life skills that we have learned over the years that we need to put to use? I realize that we all have the same goal of making it to the finish line, but we have different thoughts on how to get there.
Some of us spend our lives counting, whether it be the things that we do for the other person, or perhaps what we perceive as lies from the other person, we count to give ourselves the advantage. Our compromise is another form of counting. Bringing to the other person's the wrong that they did to you.
Why do we put ourselves into this prison of unhappiness? This is too great of a burden to carry. It is also a great burden for the other person to carry. Why should you have to keep up with the other person's faults. You say that I will never put up with his or her faults. It is a wonder how you have survived for as long as you have. Thinking perhaps that you have the advantage.
