Harmony

It’s early in the morning I can’t sleep and as I sit here in the dark I am reflecting on where we have been, where we are now and where we hopefully to be in the future.

When we first got married, we were in union with each other. We moved together never veering too far nor to close to each other. Always in unison, the same speed and distance. We were navigating through life as one unit.

 

As time went on our movement was no loner the same speed. Sometimes we moved at different speeds and our space got either closer or farther apart. If it got closer, it was because we were arguing and trying to wrestle control from each other. If our space was drifting apart that was because one or both of us was building walls to keep the other apart, not talking to each other, just doing our own thing. As the years went along, the drifting apart or the collisions of being too close was happening with greater frequency and with greater violence.

After some near catastrophic collisions and drifting apart, I knew I had to do something to retrieve what we had. I researched the internet and what I found was DD. When we were test-driving it, we found that it had the power to correct our speed so we were at the correct distance and speed so that we could move as one unit. We also found out that if we used it wrong it would separate us even farther apart than we were before.

 

After some trial and error, we found that only one person could set the speed and distance for their spouse. He is the controller or navigator sitting in the center The spouse is on the outer edge far enough to be on her own but close enough to see how fast and in what direction he is going so that she can adjust herself accordingly and to be ever watchful of events coming into their sphere of influence.

The HOH navigates through life’s terrain through his speed he may choose to go faster or slower depending on how rough the road is. He sets the distance between himself and her knowing that his wife needs time and space from him so that she can grow and think for herself but he also knows that he has to keep her close enough to protect her and be watchful for trouble ahead.

When done properly, it can be a beautiful dance for an outsider to watch as two people move with such speed and precision always as if they are one unit.
