Your mission in life is to excel at attaching, bonding, and connecting. Said spiritually, your mission is oneness. That’s it! Be one with God, spouse and healthy others.
Let’s approach this topic in reverse. What gets in the way of you attaching and developing oneness with a spouse? Here is a list to consider.
- Avoiding, escaping, and running away are so much easier.
- Oneness is challenging and requires negotiating and working together. It’s easier to just do things your way.
- Acting like a loner gives you more power and control.
- Living detached gives you freedom, and covering.
- It’s better to just float around being a mystery.
- Using anger is another option. People stay away from angry men.
- Excessive worry and negativity are also good ways for keeping others away.
- You might pick logic, fixing-problems and always coming up with solutions over engaging and growing with your wife.
- Some individuals spend countless hours on the internet. They form pseudo: relationships. Real ones require face to face struggles.
- Being connected allows people to ask you questions. Then they point out your flaws. Later they want you to change. Why?
- Finally, developing an addiction is the ultimate way to live detached. Addictions are all about you. It’s an alone mission. You find it better to escape instead of engaging in emotional growth and development.
Why this matters
You were made for oneness. Doing all the above actions hinders oneness.
Prayer
Father, bless me. Help me grow in oneness. Help me stop running away from my heavenly assignment. I want all the goodness you have for me. Amen.
