Kira and I have been reading Embracing Each Other by Hal and Sidra Stone. In the book, the authors talk about various relationship patterns that couples get into. Until we become conscious of them, and the subpersonalities that get activated, the conflicts are unavoidable.
Today we caught ourselves getting into one of the patterns and were able to recognize it, talk about it, and avoid letting it play out into an actual conflict.
I am incredibly grateful that each of us has sufficient self-awareness to use the tools we are learning about.
What are you grateful for?
