“Marriage is an extremely difficult relationship.”
– Lee Radziwill –


If we're paying attention,

we may at times discover that our anger only reflects that which we ourselves do...

~A Haiku by Duncan Cary Palmer~
 
"Who, me?" he asked her.
"You say I'm never around?
Look in a mirror."

Interesting! The anger within us can be the mirror. thanks for the thought @creatr

Thank you, Troy.

A short and metaphorical haiku like that can give a lot of food for thought. It can be interpreted in so many different ways that it allows one to really use it as a mirror for self-inspection...

I appreciate your interaction Dave. ;)

I'm glad to hear that. :)

Both having the same argument, been there :)

Check My latest post hun I have nominated you for the 7 black and white photos :) Hope that's OK

I liked the sorta play on words here. Nice.

Thank you, friend!

The only times my husband and I have arguments we both always realize that we aren't really mad at each other but outside factors like lack of sleep or frustration with school. We've both learned to reflect like looking in a mirror to see whats around us to know why we are angry.

That's great; it sounds as if you've developed a really good dynamic. :D

every argument in marriage is one-sided because you are fighting with yourself

Excellent point, sound theology... ;)

Yes, it is :)
