Will You Be My Valentine? Celebrate National Marriage Week Feb 7 - 14
I know. It's Valentines Day on Feb 14 and you are planning to celebrate with Hallmark cards, heart-shaped candy, or very expensive red roses. Right? Want another idea?
Someone once said: "Sooner or later we begin to understand that love is more than verses on valentines and romance in the movies. We begin to know that love is here and now, real and true, the most important thing in our lives. For love is the creator of our favorite memories and the foundation of our fondest dreams. Love is a promise that is always kept, a fortune that can never be spent, a seed that can flourish in even the most unlikely of places. And this radiance that never fades, this mysterious and magical joy, is the greatest treasure of all - one known only by those who love."
But let's get real here. These kinds of promises and good fortunes are things we must create. Rarely do they just fall into our laps with the result of living happily ever after.
David Mace said: "One of the great illusions of our time is that love is self-sustaining. It is not. Love must be fed and nurtured, constantly reviewed. That demands ingenuity and consideration, but first and foremost, it demands time.”
So, if you want that special someone to really be your Valentine, consider taking the Prepare-ENRICH Marriage Check Up. A quick assessment that you and your partner each take, followed by one feedback session is all it may take to deepen and extend the true meaning of Valentine's Day in the minds of couples. Instead of candy hearts, we are encouraging you take advantage of opportunities for honest relationship validation and enrichment.
This blog is all about education and enrichment. I never write with the goal of "selling you something" other than a thought to consider. But I really do believe in the power of this Prepare-ENRICH tool, and it's ability to help couples create better marriages. I have seen the results over and over again with the couples I who are willing to try it. So I am making a rare exception here and am offering a service for sale.
In honor of Marriage Week, we are offering a Deal for the Prepare-ENRICH Assessment and the feedback session which is conducted by me personally* in person or over the phone during the week of Feb 7 - 14 only!
