My relationship with myself is incredible. I am authentic and aware and live with consistency in thought and deed. Because of this personal relationship all my other relationships are positive and meaningful. I enjoy other people and realize the value that they bring in to my life. I see us connected and wish them well, just as I wish wellness upon me.
My wife, Christine, and I enjoy spending time together. We read and study separately, as well as together, and enjoyed discussing and sharing our discoveries and rememberings. I look for opportunities to bless her, to compliment her, to praise her, and she responds with satisfaction. I am honest with her and trust that she hears from her heart. I take great pleasure in learning from her and sharing my experiences with her. Our relationship is very much a win-win relationship. She brings as much to the relationship as I do. We both commit 100% to the partnership. We are incredible parents and are enjoying the empty nest period of our relationship, now. We always have things to talk about and look forward to sharing our thoughts with each other. We treat each other with mutual respect and truly want to hear and understand our partner.
I really enjoy being a father and take it serious. I gain tremendous satisfaction out of watching my daughters make their own choices. I learn from them when they make choices different from what I would have chosen. Often that choice is the wiser choice and I expand my knowledge by learning not just the what, but the why of their choice.
Angie is an incredible young lady who has followed parallel path to mine. I am honored to support her in her ventures and to learn from her. I love how she supports me and encourages the best out of me. She was very deliberate in her choice of spouse and make an excellent choice. I love and support she and Greg as they move forward together.
Cyndi taught me that there are other ways to get a college degree. She continues to teach me as she supports her family by working in the nurse pool. I’ve always liked Dave. I am close to both of them and am able to learn from Dave, as well as mentor where he desires. Their children are a huge joy to me. I love spending time with PJ. He is so free and able to be himself. He teaches me much. Kennady still knows who she is. I love hugging her and just watching her playful spirit.
Melissa is an incredible blessing in my life. She was the first of my daughters to get involved in Youth of Unity. She got me involved in church when I had gone away. I throughly enjoy being with her and her friends. She showed great taste when she married Cory. I learn much as I watch them make choices and live their life as a loving couple. Cory is a blessing in our life. Together they are great parents. Kenzie is a care free young momma’s girl. I love being with her and learning from her.
Julie and I were extremely close when she was a teenager. That relationship is strengthened again as I show her how much I support her, and her choice of Douglas as a husband. I see them working together and showing that love can overcome many obstacles. Her decision to let love rule her heart is paying great dividends in their marriage. I enjoy spending time with them, especially now that they live closer.
Amanda and I had great time in YOU. She is an incredible leader and is very well liked by her peers. I’ve watched her learn about relationship and create one with Happy that I admire. I look for opportunities to be close to her as she moves to Arizona for grad school. I help and support Amanda in every way that I can. I am open to a closer relationship with Happy as well. I proactively create opportunities to interact.
Jessi is the last one (little shit) and I love her. I trust that she knows where to get her answers and I support her. Paul is a significant part of her life and they value each other. I am glad that Paul is in her life and enjoy a close relationship with him and her. Jessi and I share some common pain and we share the joy of overcoming.
I am a good friend. I actively listen and support people wherever they are. I do many things for others without sacrificing my own peace of mind. I understand that being my best and truest self is the most important thing I can do in supporting anyone else. The next most important thing I can do is support them in being their best self.
