What is your idea of the most amazing marriage and partnership that you can imagine? Once you ask yourself that question then your mind will go about finding the answer.
Take a subject such as how you want to relate to each other on a day-to-day basis in 1 year, 10 years, 20 years, 40 years. Before you put that into words your imagination will start to picture it. Sometimes it will be a feeling instead of a picture.
Think about how you will support each other. A touch on the shoulder. A hug when things are stressed. Notes left on the front seat of the car. Holding hands as you go walking.
This is the unsaid, non-physical, emotional, psychic feelings of being together and the closeness that stands the 'tests' or 'stresses' of time.
It's fairly easy to imagine because that is what you are feeling now. It's very fresh. Fix it in mind. Take a few minutes and just allow yourself to feel it, indulge in it, fix it in mind.
There are four important elements that are important to any goal or dream:
- Think them
- Speak them
- Write them
- Read them
Before you sit down together to talk about what your life together looks like, feels like, tastes like, looks like, etc., you will begin by simply thinking about it.
Then when you talk about this together you develop even more ideas and a cosmic connection.
Next you will write it down. First just loosely as you try to make sense of it all in written form. Once you get something, anything down on paper, you will begin to see how your dream for a strong, beautiful and phenomenal marriage and partnership can actually continue.
Talk about the idea you are working with again and then make it more concrete by writing it down again as a promise or a wedding vow.
So far you have thought about your life together;
You have talked about it;
You have written it down;
And then you are going to verbally affirm it at your wedding.
This is good. This is very good.
But it is going to get better because you are going to read and review what you thought about, talked about, written about and affirmed.
You are going to fix that dream so tightly so boldly, so strongly, that everything you do and speak will be an affirmation of your beautiful, supportive, spiritual life together.
It is a law, that everything in our lives we put there because it was first in our minds.
You can use that law to your benefit. You are going to create your marriage and your life together on an invisible level. It's the same sort of idea that sports people use to imagine the outcome of the game.
Perhaps that is the easiest way to put what you will be doing in writing your own wedding vows: You will be imagining the outcome! The more you imagine, the more you get into the spirit of the outcome, the easier and surer that outcome will be.
Here is a great quote:
The people who risk nothing, do nothing, have nothing, are nothing. They may avoid suffering and sorrow, but they cannot learn, feel, change, grow, love, live. Chained by their attitudes, they are slaves; they have forfeited their freedom. Only a person who risks is free.
Lloyd J. Thomas
I'm asking you to dream a big dream. To risk. To grow. To live outrageously. To love outrageously.
