See, I am a size 9 shoe, your spouse could be a size 8.Have you thought of what your spouse responsibilities are all this past time you been married to? Do you know what you wife go through to make the house clean and presentable? Do you think of how much laundry she takes care of? etc. And, you,, Have you though of how much work your husband do taking care of the house, the cars, the bill, the yard, not even the stressful burden of responsibility of leader of a family worrying about every detail.
The question is, how you truly appreciate someone until you really be in his or her shoes?
So, here is what I thought last week... How about trading places and exchange responsibilities for a whole full week. I thought that would be the only and most fair way to understand and appreciate your spouse. So,
So, here is an idea, ask your spouse to write down all the things, that she does through out her day and tell me exactly how she would like them done. I will take notes and I will try to walk into her shoes to a week.It is a great idea to learn many things about her responsibilities. Sure, I will pick up some food receipts and see how hard it is to put a good meal together.
I believe your spouse will learn a few things as well. Maybe she will get to know which oil the car needed, or when is the right time to cut the grass. The reason behind the excises is getting closer to each other by walking into each other shoes and get a sense of what the other person feel through out the day. We also will end up knowing so much and learning so much and completing each other. There is nothing better than the feeling that your spouse completes you.
I will keep you updated on the progress.
