Welcome!
(That seems to be a weak way to start this off but we’ve got nothing else right now!)
This blog grew out of the collective beliefs of Amanda & Richard and our experiences gained in 17 years of annual relationship retreats. Plus, working on our own relationship every other day of the year since we met way back in 1994 has contributed to our ideas here.
We believe that each individual is capable of effecting change in their lives if they just have a plan and execute their plan. With two people working together, that change can be (as our son likes to say) epic! And generally all it takes to get started on the right path is 48 hours. Just two days.
And it is simply amazing (though not coincidental in the least) that this blog concept supports the subject of a book that we have written that will be out on the market soon. Our book is about a 48 hour relationship retreat where couples delve into all the aspects of their lives and make plans for success together.
So in addition to random posts about topics that occur to us, we may post about topics in the book and tangent subjects that come up as we finish the book. Basically, this is all about relationships between two people who are committed to each other. But, we reserve the right to wander off topic occasionally if something strikes our fancy. You’ll just have to deal with it.
The Blog Cocktail Ingredients:
- 2 parts kick in the pants to make personal change
- 3 parts helpful advice on how to make those changes
- Splash of humor
- 2 dashes of irreverence
- 1 jigger of sarcasm
Time to wrap this blog post up – all the “experts” suggest that people have the attention span of a gnat these days and long posts will never get read.
So, we hope you’ll drop by again soon.
Maybe we need a “catch phrase” to end all our posts? Let us know if you come up with one!
