I haven't posted for a while, so I thought I would do the first born, oldest child, bossy lecture. What better way to keep family love?
I have noticed this month that it is really not fun to be around a couple (husband/wife)who spend their time fighting with each other. Come on! You married the other person-and all you can do is fight? Puleez!
Okay, maybe I'm not the best example since I am divorced, but maybe that's because I finally learned this lesson. If you love someone and you have a disagreement, just be the bigger person and let it go. What does escalating the fight do for anyone including the couple, the kids, friends, and neighbors?
I know being the bigger person is difficult. In fact, it is fun sometimes to run one's mouth and think of those crafty, demeaning remarks to shoot back. But are they worth it? I think it just creates a deeper canyon in the relationship. I really think learning this lesson comes as you get older, but just think - if this one big sister lecture hits home with anyone who reads this--someone I know might put this into practice much sooner than I ever did.
I love you all.
