Column: Relationships - CREATE SHARED MEANING
We have a joint family crest hanging on our wall representing our families of origin. Two mottos surround the family symbols mounted on the family tartans. Clans previously united under a common banner. They shared much more than a surname; it meant something to be a Campbell or a MacDonald, to the extent of laying down your life for the family cause.
Couple life and family life are much more than just going through the motions. It is about creating a rich culture of values, rituals, symbols, a united sense of purpose - all of which combine to give us a deep sense of shared meaning. Many couples sail through life without giving thought to creating an inner life together while successful partnerships are intentional about the culture they create.
Build an atmosphere that encourages each person to talk honestly about his or her convictions. The more you speak candidly and respectfully with each other, the more likely there is to be a blending of your sense of meaning. What are the things your family stands for?
