The Dynamic Marriage

Marriage is an active, dynamic, living organism that is constantly changing and morphing, whether we like it or not. Whether we choose to change or morph with this dynamic, is entirely up to us. To actively choose to evolve within and in between the marriage is inviting opportunity for growth, success and relational wellness. Once married it does not mean we have arrived at the finish line and accomplished all of our relational needs. Marriage is not a fixed point for which we land. To truly be satisfied we must be willing to move with the tides of change, whilst maintaining healthy ideals of self. Why move? Because marriage is active, and should feel like an adventure, this is what makes the union pleasurable! The adventures we seek can be with travel, sexual exploration, children, or whatever our heart desires. When we can take this ride with someone we love, trust and respect, life can be that much sweeter.
