In the daily e-mailings of The New York Times January 16, 2007 under Quote of the Day a quote from Carol Crenshaw says "I'm in a place in life where I'm comfortable. I can do what I want, when I want, with whom I want. I was a wife and a mother. I don't feel like I need to do that again." The quote is from a women in Georgia who is now divorced after 33 years of marriage.
The words "what I want" have risen to heights in America and not even basic human compunction to motherhood and spousal commitment can stand in the way. The narrative that Crenshaw was quoted from is about how for the first time in our history upwards of 51 percent of American women with children have no spouses.
In a Tv industrial one major prestige card firm has in its background jingle the words "I'm free to do what I want any old time." The cry for what I want, when I want and where I want has taken on an approximately sacred overtone in the Us that makes the slogans of the old 90s "me generation" look innocuous.
Even the most cursory quest for what citizen say they want produces and instant picture. Money is at the top of the list but fame runs a close second and power brings up the rear. Many citizen say they are searching for purpose and a sense of who they are.
In over three decades of writing one of the most favorite articles I ever wrote was about Christian dating. In that narrative I proposed a request to ask the prospective mate. The test is approximately foolproof and with only rare exceptions will it fail. It is based on the idea of getting person to define "what they want" out of life.
The request can only be successfully put forth under very exact conditions. The first Health is that the person asking the request must be the person answering the question. The factory here is that approximately no one unless they are mentally ill or an inveterate liar will lie to themselves.
The second Health is that the person you ask to talk the request must be of course sure that they understand that you are not asking the question, they are asking it of themselves.
The request should go like this, if you were alone in one of your favorite places perhaps where you go to meditate or think, and you asked yourself a question, what would your talk be to yourself? If you asked your self "what do I of course want out of life" what would your talk be to yourself?
I all the time add that you should ask them to talk the request in one singular sentence if inherent but not more than three sentences tops.
This is not magic nor is it speculation but the results will astound you. The talk you get from the prospective mate can be tested over time. Should you come to know that person intimately it will be easier to track the consequent but even if you should lose sense for years when you see them again you would find they have found what they said they wanted or they are still searching for it.
On the same day that Carol Crenshaw was quoted a list of the most favorite articles published by The New York Times also appeared. In the top ten is an narrative entitled, "Questions Couples Should Ask (Or Wish They Had) Before Marrying." The questions posed by that narrative are predetermined and don't call upon the introspection and self test that is so critical to arrive at an honest answer.
Most matching or dating services focus on compatibilities but not much more. What motivates citizen seems far more important because it has to do with what person expects to create in life rather than what they hope to acquire. It has to do with the issues of the heart and not just the desires of the heart. It is little wonder that the bible says, "Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life." Proverbs 4:23
