First Year Struggles
Posted by Arwen Mosher in Marriage on Tuesday, September 28, 2010
A while ago I got an email from a reader asking for advice on thriving through the first year of marriage.
My first thought: Whoa. I am not the right person to be asking!
My husband and I have a wonderful marriage now. He is my partner in the best sense of the word. I love him and wouldn’t want to live without him. But our first year… well, it was a little rocky.
I think I honestly expected our marriage,... READ MORE

People are preposterous. And wonderful!

Dan, With a Hammer
Posted by Danielle Bean in Marriage on Thursday, September 02, 2010
Here’s a peek at the view from my living room window a couple of days ago.
It’s Dan, with a hammer.
In preparation for the coming winter, we have been replacing some of our windows with more energy efficient ones. And by “‘we” I mean Dan.
Because I don’t do that kind of thing. He does.
When we were dating in high school, Dan once drew me a picture of a rabbit. I held on to that drawing for years... READ MORE

Are you a Nag?

Last night, Greg and I had a long conversation about our communication (or lack thereof) with the kid we dropped off at college last week. I was sharing with him that I will miss my conversations with Eric, since the communication we’re getting these days seems to come in quick bits, texts and when he needs something. Greg wisely counseled me to be patient, but most of all not to waste any precious... READ MORE
"Call Within a Call"
Posted by Arwen Mosher in Faith on Thursday, August 26, 2010
Today is the 100th anniversary of Mother Teresa’s birth, and the day is being widely celebrated.
On the radio this afternoon, I caught a snippet of Al Kresta’s segment on the topic. His guest talked about how Mother Teresa had been living happily as a nun until she felt the call to serve the poorest of the poor. It was Teresa’s “call within a call,” she said.
Since then I’ve been thinking about that... READ MORE

Quoted
Posted by Rebecca Teti in Marriage on Thursday, August 12, 2010
“Nearly all marriages, even happy ones, are mistakes: in the sense that almost certainly (in a more perfect world, or even with a little more care in this very imperfect one) both partners might be found more suitable mates. But the real soul-mate is the one you are actually married to.”
—J.R.R. Tolkien, in a letter to his son, 1941
