Want to Thrive in Your Relationship?

Grow Into Love


As I see it, a relationship should evolve with experience and maturity just as our preferences in foods and beverages do. Elora Canne: En Route memoir

To explain the quote above, we'll start with loving ice cream and later, with a more health conscious awareness, we turn to frozen yoghurt as a delicious alternative. 

As age creeps up and with it a broader perspective, green smoothies become the next best thing to improve our health and meet our flavour needs. 

Then time wears on and we try an even healthier option – say kombucha – as our bodies begin the journey into our wisdom years.




Let's Thrive on our Relationship Journey

By and by we realize there really is no magic elixir to prevent life and relationship mishaps, but most importantly of all, the realization hits that all of these beverages we’ve enjoyed along our relationship journey have one thing in common – they have been primarily mixed with water.

Bland, tasteless, colorless water.

And that is exactly what our relationships are made of too. 

🚰 You have to see the flavorless banality as part of your togetherness if you’re going to make a go of loving this soul you have chosen to be your life partner. 

🍦 It can’t only be about rich and creamy ice cream or flavorsome kombucha. 

👥 No, you and your partner are both human beings designed to experience the whole gamut of life and its emotions; and essentially the majority of the being that you are, is made up of that boring yet life-giving water.

🧊 Love that stuff in you, your partner and your life because your very life and love depend on it!

The Kind of Life You Want

Redefining Love and Marriage https://unsplash.com/@jennymarvin Committing to a life-long marriage through difficult times takes a lot of courage. I had to define for myself the kind of life I wanted. Was I willing to forgo some of my identity to take on the characteristics of a partner who, just 30 years ago, was a complete stranger to me? Had I really got to know him at all? In this life that we share, how deeply had we truly got to know each other? Not so deeply at all, I was to learn. In spite of the many epiphanies through our year-long travel escapade, what we did on a daily basis in the humdrum of a nine to five lifestyle eroded the  lessons learnt and the coping mechanisms we had adopted. Outwardly we have a wonderfully marvelous life, yet our invisible introspection, unseen by those around us, slowly dims the light in both of our eyes. Old habits took over as we forgot to create special moments together. Our lives became mechanical. Learning to redefine the meaning of l...

There's Always a Solution I said this to a friend the other day who was struggling with tech stuff. She was so grateful for the boost that  she persevered for an entire week , but she did it!  So let’s just expand on the notion here, that ' there's always a solution.' Elora Canne - Memoir Writer I'm delighted to share my conversation with you, from the Living Big Mindfully podcast where host, Kate Champion, and I discussed many later-in-life relationship topics.  But I'm particularly interested in sharing with you, the notion that there is indeed always a solution .  Not only in everyday life situations, as told above, but also in those deeper, more difficult to navigate situations as you'll discover on the podcast. There is always a way around a hurdle,  even if you can't jump over it. To listen in on our conversation, insights and solutions, tap this link:  Living Big Mindfully Podcast Book News: 🫂 Allow me to focus, just for a minute, on those solut...
