Due to the recent decision to be engaged to Ashley Hart. I have been reading "engagement" books.
"You didn't read the baby books, dude you shouldv'e read the baby books" - Knocked Up.
And that about sums it up.
If there are unlimited resources for such a thing as "pre-marital counseling" why not engage? (no pun intended) By the time I am done reading, practicing, and studying these books, I feel as if to start my own book titled "The 6th love language: A Pre-Marital Prime Minister". And then the 7th language: And then the 8th love language. And pretty soon I would continue to create so many love languages that a whole other language was born. Ok seriously...I really have learned quite alot in so little a time; for man's problem is we are good at what we put time into...unfortunately it is video games and sports and careers. So for a week I have been "engaging" in this thing called marriage. Here are the themes: Euphoric feelings dont last; communication is pivotal, which requires men to listen; There will be conflict; Selfishness must die; Sacrifice and compromise are a must; It takes work; Never segregate, always be together; And all from this derives the biblical purpose of being 'one flesh'; Clean the toilet; Did I say teamwork already?; Dont give in to absenteeism; Do not fight over baubles such as TV, computer, and the rest; Did I say Unity already? And the list could go on....so for the most important part what did I really learn this week? SELFISH PURSUITS MUST GO...IT IS NO LONGER "I"...BUT "WE". Hope you enjoyed; the Pre-Marital Prime Minister signing off. Chao.
