I don't know if I've ever written a post on marriage. I know I've never written about the winning and the losing side of it. With the exception of my wife, I just haven't. Sorry.<\/p>\n
Marriage can be a powerful part of Epic Living.<\/p>\n
I happened upon this post<\/a> while on Google +<\/a> last week. The writer, Kelly Flanagan<\/a>, is a therapist practicing in Wheaton, Illinois<\/a>. It is by far, one of the best takes on what makes for a thriving marriage. He does an excellent job of breaking things down in a way that most anyone can unwrap. I think he's onto something that many already know; a life-long relationship is essentially about serving\/giving to the person you love. The greatest irony of this is found in the fact that you get so much more back from that serving\/giving.<\/p>\n Married or not, you'll gain a lot out of his perspective. I'd love to know if you see applications beyond marriage too. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I don't know if I've ever written a post on marriage.
