Accepting that which you don’t want to Accept
Few things are more difficult for two people to do than accept things they don’t like about each other.
“Why do you let that bother you?” someone once asked when I complained.
I thought for a long time before I realized the answer: I didn’t know why I let it bother me. It did no good.
“Let it go,” I was advised.
It was great advice. If some little irritation does not really matter, let it go.

If you have a Marriage Moment you would like to share, please email me at patricia@patriciamrobertson.com. I look forward to hearing from you. Also, be sure not to miss a Marriage Moment.
