Helping love flourish in couples of all kinds
Since it is impossible to keep good love down, more, not fewer variations of love and family arrangement will thrive.
Amen to that I say. Love cannot be constrained by any prescription of the “right” way. How do I know? I’ve learned it through my life experience.
- I was born to a teenage mother who, through love, was willing to give me to another family who possibly (and hopefully) could give me a “better life.”
- I was adopted by two amazing people whose love molded us into one family that was as strong as any bound by blood ties.
- I was welcomed with loving, open hearts into a new family when my mom remarried after my parent’s divorce.
- I was loved faithfully by a woman who transitioned from her role as my dad’s girlfriend into his wife.
- I was lovingly re-welcomed by the courageous woman who gave me up at birth and her entire family.
- I was received with love by the family of the man who is now my husband, despite our 28 year age difference.
Love is a power that no strictures can diminish and no rules can define. I am grateful that this is true, not only for love’s impact on my life, but for the opportunity we each have to let love be our guiding light.
Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.
~ Rumi
One of Bruce and my highest intentions is to help create a world of greater love, compassion, and connection, and we wrote I Do! I Do! The Marriage Vow Workbook out of this calling. The book is offered as a tool to support any and all couples who love one another to stay in love with one another, whether they are of different or same sex, foreign or shared cultural heritage, dissimilar or similar age, distinct or common religious beliefs. We believe that by offering our gifts in this way, we will nurture the spirit of love and help it flourish in diverse and beautiful families across the globe.
