Finding Happily Ever After

As I have journeyed through my marriage relationship, I have longed to arrive at the city of Happily Ever After. I have had many experiences in my marriage that prompt discouragement and sadly give me a feeling as though I am thousands of miles away from my destination. 

Have you ever thought, “this shouldn’t be this hard?” Maybe you have wondered, as I have said to myself and heard countless times, “if we are compatible, shouldn’t it be easier?”

The truth is like everything else in life, things of value take time and work to find the benefits. You wouldn’t show up to work only 3 days out of the week and then expect your employer to pay you for a full 5 days of work. I am almost certain you wouldn’t have that job very long. Relationships are work. You will see the great rewards of companionship as you work on the relationship.

There are professionals who are ready to listen and help in the hard work of relationships. The counselors at The Fountains Counseling Center love people and thriving relationships, whether they are marriages, friends, relatives, we want to walk with you.
