Marriage "Take Me There."

If you have not heard the Rascall Flatts song "Take Me There," you
need to download it from Itunes. It is a song written for everyone's
heart. Who doesn't want someone especially that special someone to
want to engage their own story and know them intimately. Who doesn't
want that person to want to go down the same backroads they have been
down, enter the experiences they have experienced, feel the joys and
pains they have experienced that helped to make them who they are today?

Strange is how few of us know how to do that. My wife are working
hard on this one. It amazes me how often we can just want to pick up
from today and just build the new memories without sharing the old
ones. It is amazing how hard work it is to sit in those past moments
with that someone you love especially when they are filled with hurt.
It's hard. It takes time. It takes a lot of emotional energy. It
takes a lot of listening. It takes a lot of love. When we don't know
where our spouse has come from do we really know who they are? What
if we all took the time to not just hear the stories of the past but
let our spouse take us there? I imagine understanding your spouses
heart may feel a little more attainable.
