Another thought....my W told me that a partnership was like a tree. (dont know where that one came from) she said that 'we' are the trunk and our independent lives are the branches. They all get their strength from the trunk and no branch can survive without the trunk.
I thought that was a wonderful description. I told my C about it and she said...That's good, but if the tree becomes heavy on one side, it will fall.
So, it's a matter of balance. Find and be yourself, but don't lose sight of the true meaning of partners. Without the balance, the tree will fall.
