When you invest in your marriage everything works and everyone benefits. For your happiness, this might just be the most important work you’ll ever do as a couple.

Beloved, Beloved I have a fantastic dream. To be slain by your glance, a worthy dream. Beloved, Beloved, distance from your thought and touch only show me how hollow is life without you … Rumi

  “You can let EGO be the boss in your relationship or COMPASSION. EGO judges, wants to be right and in control all the time. EGO loves in order to “get”. COMPASSION on the other hand does not judge but wants to understand by walking in your shoes. COMPASSION loves in order to “give”. What I do at my weekend retreats for couples is awaken the COMPASSION button in each person–they do the rest.

 “The holiest of all the spots on earth is where an ancient hatred has become a present love.” ~A Course in Miracles

There are only four questions of value in life: What is sacred? Of what is the spirit made? What is worth dying for? What is worth living for? And the answer to all four is Love.”   ~ Don Juan de Marco

For one human being to love another; that is perhaps the greatest work, the last and final work for which all other is but preparation.  ~R.M. Rilke

The problem of the meaning of life is solved by the mystery of love.” Sam Keen

When our love runs deep, life can get messy and unpredictable. We can touch the center of our joy but also the core of our sorrow… Divorce or separation is sometimes necessary but many times it is an escape from feeling the valley of the heart. If you have the courage to stand in the fire with your partner, then you can heal your wounds and create harmonious unions
