How Did We Get From "I Do" to "I Can't Anymore"?

He Asked For A Divorce, Her One Requirement Put Him In Tears. - When this husband asked for a divorce, his wise and resourceful wife had just one request: to hold her every day for one month. As each day of the month progresses, they visit places that were once meaningful to them in their relationship. At the end, she agrees to sign the divorce papers but his reaction will make you believe in love again.

Divorce is a life altering event. A thousand times more so if you have children.  Sometimes we get to that point without really considering how we got there. How did we get from knowing "I can't live without you" to "I can't live with you anymore"? Sometimes we need to "reboot" and "reformat" our "marital harddrives". Did the other person change or did the way you both responded to the stress of daily living and looking after a family change the way you treated each other? 

Give yourselves the chance to go back to the beginning and remember why you fell in love with each other in the first place.  Maybe we need to remember the enemy is "out there" and not the one sleeping in your bed beside you.  At the very least be kind to each other.  Don't save your smiles and flirty words just for the Stabucks "barista" !

This little 5 1/2 min video says more than a thousand words ever could.  Give it a few minutes of your day to speak to your "heart".
