That's the LBS mode of thinking that without something to connect us with the WAS, there is no hope... that could be attributed to feeling like we need to control something.
So choose to control yourself. There are very definitely couples without children who R. How that might work is up to you. Control what you CAN control... HOW you are... WHO you are... your actions... your mind...
25 says it in the form of "time + consistent action = positive results" or something like that...
I say it the way I learned, years ago.
Getting to a goal is first WANTING the goal... and second setting out on a course (one of the million paths) to the goal, stated this way:
Intention (desire for the goal) + mechanism = results (goal achieved)
There are a million and more ways to do something... to achieve a goal... so really, it is only a matter of continuing to get up until we reach the goal. The WAY we get to the goal is irrelevant, because there IS a way. So the equation is more like:
Intention = Results
The only way the above changes, is when our intention changes... (or what we stated was our intention, really was just lip service)...
