MODULE 1: INTIMACY VS FAMILIARITY IN MARRIAGE
Intimacy is the highest point of Marriage while Familiarity can kill any relationship, so beware of it. There is a thin line between intimacy and familiarity. Most couples are familiar with each other only few are intimate. Familiarity will always breed contempt, generate hurts and destroy affection.
WHEN YOU PUT MICROSCOPE ON NEGATIVITY YOU GET FAMILIAR AND GET INTO TROUBLE.
‘’My wife is slow, Lazy, difficult and dirty, I have never seen this kind of Woman in my life’’
‘’My Husband is terrible, very difficult, unpredictable, unyielding, unbending, stingy and self center’’
You are telling us what you are familiar with, which you have been meditating upon to make you think and act negatively. You haven’t told us that your Wife cooks, boils, takes care of the House, nurtures your Children, nurses you whenever you are sick, she also takes care of your Family.
You haven’t told us your Husband does not beat you, he does not smoke, he pays House rent, School fees, drops money for food and general housekeep etc.
When you put your Microscope on negativity or weakness of your Spouse, the negativity becomes big and enlarged, hurting you and your Marriage.
WHEN YOU PUT MICROSCOPE ON POSITIVITY YOU GET INTIMATE AND CREATE GREAT MARRIAGE.
However, when you put your microscope on positivity and the strength of your spouse, those strong points equally become big and enlarged, giving you great feelings and help to build your Marriage.
BETWEEN FAMILIARITY AND INTIMACY
Familiarity says, I am close enough to know your weakness and I hate you for it while Intimacy says I am close enough to celebrate your Strength despite your weakness.
Familiarity talks Weakness to People
Intimacy talks strength everywhere
Familiarity says I would have loved you if not for your weaknesses
Intimacy says I love you because you are mine despite your weaknesses
Familiarity says, i regret marrying you because of your weaknesses
Intimacy says, I have weaknesses too, so let use our strength to cover our weaknesses.
Familiarity brings magnifying lenses and puts it on weaknesses
Intimacy brings magnifying lenses and puts it on the strength of the Spouse to celebrate him or her.
Don’t get familiar, get intimate. Familiarity breeds contempt, intimacy builds love.
