Heyyyy-ooo!
Another lost video from the “What I Know Now” series I did awhile back. Oops. Guess I’m just swimming in so many videos that I lose track of them.
I decided to continue The Illumination Project‘s theme of bringing in older, wiser counsel and ask my mom: How do I know this is the type of guy I should marry?
Mama E explains a few Love and Respect principles that will guide you to your answer and help you make a check list to direct you through each question. And what are signs that you need to bolt from the relationship?
Also, isn’t my mom so cute? I feel like I could just throw her over my shoulder like a continental solider.
From my heart,
Joy

I love the intergenerational conversation that you are facilitating! This is a direction much needed in our society that age-segregates and season-of-life segregates. We lose out when we don’t hear from one another!
This direction of intergenerational conversation is wonderful and so needed in a society that age-segregates and even “season-of-life” segregates.
This direction of intergenerational conversation is wonderful and so needed in a society that age-segregates and even separates us by “season-of-life”.
So good to hear this intergenerational conversation! Thank you.

I love that you guys talk about seeking counsel. That is a lesson that I have really taken to heart. It’s easy to be blinded by “love”. I’m not currently in a relationship, but I know that I definitely want that type of insight and wisdom from my people when I’m in a relationship. Joy, I also love that you mentioned the importance of gauging whether the person you are seeing is someone who would make life easier- in that they would not make it harder than it had to be. So many times people worry about picking the wrong person, missing the “one”. When the more important question is whether this person has the character/integrity/personality that would make doing life together more enjoyable.
