Reserved Imagine yourself
in a hall, where you have gone for a meeting, but the place is full to
capacity and the only option you seem to have is to lean on the wall, all the
seats have been taken up by others. You are tired at the
same time this meeting is one you cannot afford to miss, while you are
bracing yourself up for the task of having to stand through the meeting which
would last for awhile, you suddenly hear someone call your name. It’s
your friend who you knew was also coming for the meeting and he beckons on
you to come over saying he has reserved a seat for you. You feel
relieved, excited and much more you are made to feel special because someone
thought about you and reserved a seat for you. In relationship
you bring that special feeling back when you take the time to think about
what you can do to make life easier, happier and better for your spouse and
do it for him/her. Due to the volume
of things you have to get done, it would take a conscious effort on your part,
to reserve something special for that special someone. Reserve a kind
thought, a gift, a loving and encouraging word, an embrace, a special time to
meet up for lunch etc. What are going to reserve for your spouse, there is so much
demand on everything from your time, money, your strength, your thoughts,
your kindness etc making it so easy for you to only give each other the
leftovers which do not amount to much. Before you give
all your time out to other things, you could reserve a place in your busy
life for your spouse, with that you are making an impression on him/her
saying even though I have a lot to do you mean a lot to me. Learn to
appreciate and enjoy whatever your spouse has taken the time to reserve for you
knowing that this is his/her way of communicating to you how special you are.
This makes
marriage and relationships happier and strong.
