This is my notes from a book in which I began reading yesterday. This has me thinking but also being greatful for what I have learned up to this point.
* Both parties engage in certain behaviors. No one causes it. No one is to blame. You both do what you do.
* You have a choice about how you react to a given situation.
* The problems that come up is not your partner; the problem is the dance that you and your partner do together. You have a part in that dance.
* Be patient with yourself.
"A man of knowledge uses words with restraint, and a man of understanding is even-tempered. Even a fool is thought wise if he keeps silent, and discerning if he holds his tongue." Proverbs 17:27-28
