Especially when discussing something important, put away anything distracting (like your phone) and show your partner they have your full attention. Be aware that good communication is a skill that most of us have to learn, rather than something that happens effortlessly.

I was introduced to the ‘Pearls of life’ beads from Swedish Bishop Martin Lönnebo c.13 years ago by @ThePaulColton @CofIrelandCork & they have travelled with me ever since. Each pearl represents an area of life to reflect on as part of daily prayer/ritual/ #spirituality

Continue seeking Him with seriousness. Unless He wanted you, you would not be wanting Him.”
