Seth’s the man.

It’s frightening how quickly tomorrow’s priorities become today’s priority, especially with health matters.

Hey Dustin, this is the first time I’m reading one of your posts. I like the way you write. Anyway, my husband and I just got married last year… we’re still newlyweds. I agree completely with keeping a “proactive” marriage. It’s really important to make time for each other, to do things for and with each other, and to treat each other with the love and respect they deserve. My husband is a top priority in my life. A marriage is something both people should constantly work at and continue to evolve as the partners themselves evolve.

Thanks for your post!
Michelle

Thanks for the awesome and insightful comment, Jorja. I agree that it is much easier to say you’re proactive than to actually live it. You bring up a really interesting point about not seeing our marriages as projects. I personally don’t associate the word “proactive” with a mechanical or project-related task, but it’s really helpful to hear that you do. I wonder if others share that connotation?

Thanks again for such a great comment!
