We both have to agree to accept each other as being worthwhile, lovable, responsible adults working together to create this partnership. The focus shifts towards growing the marriage and away from changing each other or being responsible for each other. We can maintain some autonomy and independence while contributing energy towards the growing partnership. And if either of us isn't 100% each day, the partnership can still grow and thrive on the energy it receives from the other. You are not responsible for my success or happiness, I am not responsible for yours. We can build a marvelous marriage between us if you are willing.
