So, obviously my marriage is close to death. That is okay. I expect that this is just part of the cycle of life, that this is something that must occur before it could ever be rebirthed. However, I thought I’d share something quick about some of the mistakes that others can avoid. Our pain becomes your knowledge. I had felt that due to my marriage falling apart that I had lost a lost of value in writing about this stuff. I mean really, what do I know? But, I also realized that we can learn from others’ mistakes and it doesn’t always require experiential knowledge to do so.
In my marriage rescue operation, I fell victim to something I call “back draft” resentment. I get this from the movie Back Draft. Basically, what happens is there is resentment sitting there behind the scenese from one or both parties. After you get your partner to reengage in the marriage for a bit, it could be a false sense of security because it is HIGHLY likely that the same old issues can reemerge after a period of time. Every story is different of course, but basically reader be advised if it ever got bad enough it can get that bad again.
So one partner is feeling lonely for whatever reason. They may be this way naturally, get bored with their life, feel like they haven’t accomplished anything, or perhaps even always been that way. It also happens in cycles. They call it the “7 year itch”. Whatever the reason, it doesn’t matter. If your kid decided that they hate their life, would you say… well have fun with that. Hopefully not.
Anyway, I’ve tried to draw a picture of what can happen if these relationship forces aren’t understood. In each case, try to think about the counter to these forces - the opposite of fear = confidence, etc. The drawing below is to realize, it is not either partner’s fault, but rather the reality of the system you both have been intertwined in. This is my diagram. You may have to create your own. My diagram has other relationship forces as well, but I put the biggies here to give you an idea of how to figure out what is going wrong with yours.

Anyway, that is one point. The other is credibility. If you are reading this site, you’re probably thinking how in the world to I convince my spouse to come home literally or perhaps even figuratively if they are still living with you. Speaking from experential knowledge, it doesn’t work that way. It simply fails. Everyone knows this, yet it is so hard to put into practice when you are in the situation. Annoying teddy bear love always creating desperation cycle resulting in further damage to relationship.

Wait a second… you didn’t even click it right? Why not? Because it is obviously bogus. So it is when you try to promise the world to your spouse. I’ve thrown some lines out there and had a few nibbles from her, but only when I wasn’t promising the world. Only when I was being real. That of course was mixed in with a lot of anger. Anger is good. It means they still care somewhere deep down inside, but don’t want to admit it, are saving face after filing, or whatever.
At this point, all I’ve got is that she is starting to be nice after about 8 months. Apparently she had a lot of resentment in the system to purge. I’m not sure what is going to happen next, but I’ve accepted the worst case, but hope for the best. That’s all I can do. The emotions are largely in check at this point. I still have a bit of up and down on occassion, but it doesn’t last all that long.
Lately, I’ve been practicing more on my psychic abilities, hearing the still small voice of God that is within all well most of us, praying freakin angels and shields of light around my wife. I’m not sure whether it was those prayers, or time that all of a sudden got my wife to start acting nice. I do know that I changed my prayer style though, and I started seeing manifestations of markedly different behavior from her. We’re not together yet, and we may have another year and a half to go, but there has been a turn around. Your mileage may vary. As I pray these things, I try not to impact her choices, but merely put protective layers of light, angels, rains of light, little jolley green trolls with an addiction to jolley ranchers that like to fight off imps, or whatever… the point is to use your imagination… thought and time and space are interrelated. Like casting a pebble into a pond. I don’t fully understand how, but I know they are now. This is from a study of science, spirituality, personal but subjective spiritual experiments, etc. over the last 6 months.
You may not be ready for this….so brace yourself. It took me about two years to figure this out, and I don’t know everything yet, but from my path this is where I’m at now. You may be further than me or behind me in your path so be careful.
Here is another thing. When praying… I’ve learned a few things here and there. It seems like you have to talk to the subconcious. It doesn’t seem to know right from wrong really, in that all evil is subjective from its perspective.
Think of it this way… Hitler, though perhaps the most evil man ever… actually in his own mind, thought he was doing the world a favor. Think about it. Yeah, I’m not saying that there aren’t people out there with pure malicious intent, but this guy Hitler says.. .I’ve got a great idea… let’s advance humanity and stop all this poverty and disease stuff… but how? Well, his “how” was sickening to folks like you and me obviously, but you get the point? Yes, our “egos” allow him to be considered evil, and no doubt about it from the concious point of view, but the subconcious… is different as I understand it so far. The weird thing, as I understand it.. the subconcious is what connects us to waht we call God. You know… have you ever had one of those feelings or prayers that you just “knew” would be answered? How? Was it a thought or an emotion? Think about it. Did you picture somethign and so strongly believe in it that it happened?
Subjective evil… there are many cultures around the world where having multiple wives is what all the cool kids are doing, so don’t be so quick to judge others when you by either chance or providence were placed into your probable middle class Western culture body - given that you have Internet access, a computer, Bible, etc. Yes, that was out there but it will hopefully get you in the right frame of mind for praying.
Anyway, what I’ve learned is to try and picture things that generate emotions and use them consistently, then sort of speak it into existence. Then you ask the Father.. you know .. the one that is within all of us, and is part of everything… the carnal mind may call Him, Yahweh, or other names… that is worshiping a being. I’m starting to discover, that there is a much much bigger picture than that.. and the sad thing is, this paragraph will make absolutely no sense to you if you haven’t read or experienced enough to know what I’m talking about. I’d venture a guess that I’ve probably read upwards of 10,000 pages on spirituality, religion, and scripture this year alone. When I don’t have time to read, I listen to audio and use text to speech. As part of that process, a bigger picture starts to emerge that sadly I can’t condense into one paragraph nor are many prepared to accept. Some people just know what I think I’ve found though, almost instinctively. The sad thing is, we all do, but then something gets in the way. Ourselves. Our egos. The illusion that we are separated from God.
In any case, If you are doing this right, you will likely feel what I now call energy surges. Those are my experiences though. Yours WILL be different by virtue of your own path and relationship with God. These things are very intense for me now. My whole body starts tingling and stuff, and that’s when I know I’m in the “prayer zone”. Evidently, I don’t have enough “power” to transport my wife back home… but I can respect her choices at this time for her to go through what she needs to go through as part of her own path. Make sense? Baaaaahhh…. love is not forceful. Whatever.
