The New Marriage - Part Three of Four
Harry Stack Sullivan, in The Interpersonal Theory of Psychiatry , argues that human beings have a biological drive to develop and establish interpersonal relationships. In Biological Basis for Human Social Behavior , R.A. Hind suggests that a person’s “attachment style”—the way in which they relate to other human beings and form relationships with them—is developed mostly during childhood. The attachment style tends to persist into adulthood but is not fixed and can be modified either positively or negatively as the result of further interactions.

Feelings and Risk
Are you willing to risk a greater degree of pain and disappointment for a higher level of joy, satisfaction, and emotional fulfillment? Every choice in life has tradeoffs. We carefully weigh the possible outcomes, assess our willingness and tolerance for risk, and then make a choice based on our perceptions of the outcomes.

Sacred Love - Building a Relationship on the Higher Ground of Dreams and Love
Every year I take small groups of people to these sacred lakes. They go to find a deeper essence of life, to renew their individual commitment to authenticity. People sit by those lakes and dream, and there is no ego involved. Ego falls off on the way up. These lakes are a place where, legend has it, the power of prayers are multiplied by thousands upon thousands, a place where dreams that are dreamed, come true. And for me that has always been the case.

sacred Love - Overcoming Loneliness
Sitting on top of the world, looking across the vast expanse of this earth and this universe, it is possible to feel the beauty and ultimate emptiness of our existence here on earth. Emptiness. It means without meaning, insignificant, without need or the hope of have a need met. Sitting on top of one of these mountains and looking beyond we know that we are a part of something far greater that the little worlds we call our own.

Hard Work is Bad Management - Vison is not Always the Best Answer
Nature never destroys anything, she simply builds a new one on top of the old one, greater in consciousness, less in number. In other words nature doesn’t make quantum leaps, she evolves by making things smarter and faster.
Business runs on cash. The currency of love in a business is cash. Love sustains a relationship, cash sustains a business. If you run out of love in a relationship, you run out of relationship. If you run out of cash in a business, you run out of business. Cash is king.

To Hug, Touch and Caress
It is not our indifference that keeps us warm at night. It is our willing and inspiring tenderness that makes others want to be near us. To want to keep us warm. The simple hug, touch, and caress are more than an awesome experience. They have the potential to change your whole life.

Starving For Emotional Intimacy
It is a common thing that people who crave emotional closeness are the very people who consistently get emotional distance from others. We may not see ourselves as emotionally distant because emotional distancing takes different forms: manipulation, nagging, whining, seduction, fakeness, control, intrusion, avoidance, isolation, jumping to conclusions about other people's words and actions, etc..

Let It Go
We only truly fail when we cease to strive to be better. We only lose when we quit. Accept your mistakes and learning opportunities and pick yourself up and move on. Let the bad from the past go.
Just let it go...
