Menopause
Gives me pause. Makes our relationship stop dead in its tracks and spin onto its head. Feeling the blood gushing to my skull leaves me only one choice: Flip it. Turn this sucker around. Appeal to my wife's hidden senses, that is, hidden somewhere deep in the jumbled mix of horomones and rash emotions that cause outbursts of displaced anger and place undeserved stress on me.
Emotionally drained as I am, I still know what it means to be civil. To be a part of a working relationship, a progressing marriage, it takes two people to work through things. But wifey right now doesn't have her right mind most of the time. She's chuckling when I tell her how she's making me feel. I hope her mother can talk some sense into her. God willing, Momma's visit tomorrow will begin the cleansing of our relationship by snapping wifey out of her funk.

My prayers are with you my son. For you and your marriage to "overcome" these difficult times and trouble. Yes, Mrs. Govea, you have to "stop" letting the "menopause" "control you" - you have the "power" to control it. This is a "natural" string of life's challenges, so "STOP" begin TO HEAL YOURSELVE - FOR YOUR "MARRIGAGE" SAKE.
ReplyDeleteMomma's gone home and her suppor, advice and encouragement, especially to Katsumi, have really helped us see things clearly. She's told my wifey to really look at what kind of life I'm providing for the family and to begin to show more appreciation for it. I think she's coming around to her senses again.
