The way you state about creating an environment for resiliency to thrive is a great way to look at this. I have fealt for a long time that rebuilding a foundation for a marriage is hard work, especially with people still living in it. i could have let things fall apart and just let this die, but who would that really help? Me, my kids, my wife?
