Who Gives You your Emotional Support? 1/17/2009 9:06:09 PM
After experiencing a very hectic work week and very little time together, my husband and I finally had the opportunity to have one of our good talks. He is my best friend and when we do not have enough time together-I definitely feel like something is missing. We have been married for fifteen years, so sometimes it is easy to feel like we take each other for granted-kind of like-I just know that when I wake up in the morning that my right hand is attached to my body. So maybe time spent away from each other is a good reminder of what we are to each other.
I had been feeling a little off my game. So our talk was so important to me. He listened intently, offered support and suggestions. By the end of our conversation-I felt like a new person. He also seemed shocked that I felt like I was not functioning at my highest level. His comment was, "What do you mean? You have been a dynamo all week". Now that is love.
As a mom, wife, author, and life coach I often feel that I am the mother bear, taking care of everything and keeping everyone happy and safe. Yet, I am reminded that I do need and receive support. I feel so blessed by this gentle, caring man.
Who gives you your emotional support? Be sure to say thank you and offer a prayer of thanks for the special people in your life today.
