Family needs…

--One of the first things I had to learn when my wife and I had children was there was no more me so to speck. It was all about us. The Family.
--I learned to put my needs, wants, or whatever on hold and concentrate on the Family. And our needs as a whole.
--And let me tell you it has been the most rewarding exhausting experience of my whole life. Learning to put the needs of others first instead of self seems to go against everything that we are told by society Even more so it seems in these past few years. Which is a shame, because nothing can compare to the feeling it gives of lending a helping hand even when you really don’t want to.
--But realizing that you no longer have that option, you gave that up when you stood before God, Friends and Family and made your vows on your wedding day. So you drag yourself of to fulfill the needs of your Family. And in the process, you find out that it’s not as bad as you thought. In fact, it really feels pretty darn good.
--Over time of course it becomes easier, and in the beginning, I’ll admit it was hard.
--But if there’s one thing I’ve learned over the years about vows before God, when you break them our just plain ignore them. He has a habit of keeping track and pointing it out at the worst time, or in the worst possible way. Usually it’s so much better to try to live up to them…
