Injecting Life into Stale Bread

Grocery stores have a dirty little secret that they use when trying to sell produce and meat and other items.  They will inject water or blood into things to make it look like it's new.  Ewww.

That's not the issue here.  The issue is injecting newness back into something so that it doesn't go stale.

Relationships...

If you think about the newness of a relationship you can kind of envision all the most positive things about a couple that is starting out on a new adventure in life together.  After the union becomes familiar, then other aspects of each person's characteristics begin to show.  That bad habit that was cute at first but now is a little bit annoying.  The phone calls he or she still gets from people they knew before the relationship who aren't really considerate of the new relationship and just want their time with that person.  The comments that are made by one or more of the participants that no longer are endearing but are now irritating.  The list continues.

This isn't the case with ALL relationships, but because we live in a fast food society, we find that we are quick to reach points in our lives where we find ourselves TOLERATING each other instead of ENJOYING each other.  Whenever you have to tolerate someone that generally means that you don't necessarily enjoy that person's company.  If you go from enjoying your partner to tolerating your partner, you have to pause and take stock in the original reason you started the union in the first place.

This is what the Relationship Renaissance is about...

Again, ALL relationships aren't like this but those that ARE could do very well with what the Relationship Renaissance offers...

more to come...
