Life Partner Decisions

I believe that one of the most important decisions that we can make in life is who we choose to spend our life with.  The one that we want to spend forever with.  This often determines the direction of your life; elevation or descension.  A good man or good woman I believe will complement you and provide increase to your life.  Increase in happiness, love, peace, joy, abundance, prosperity, security.  It is all up from there.

However, the wrong partner can cause chaos in your life.  It can wreak havoc on your finances, your abundance, your peace, and most importantly, your health, due to the stress, anger, and potential sadness sitting in your body.  Choosing someone who does not align with your financial goals (perhaps they are financially irresponsible), spiritual life / goals, how you view the world, how you want your household to be, moral values, and more, could be detrimental.  Perhaps this person is always angry, is narcissistic, demanding, controlling, dismissive, abusive physically and/or emotionally, and more. 

I have heard stories of divorced individuals who admitted that they would have been so much further in life had they not married the person they did.  While they may have had some good times here and there, unfortunately, the bad outweighed the good.  Perhaps their credit was ruined, they did not get to go after their dreams, their partner crushed their dreams and their spirit, rather than encouraging and supporting them, and so on.  My grandmother always said that you can do bad all by yourself, and that is so true.  If I am not being elevated in the relationship, why waste my time?  That tells me that this is not the right partner for me.

We all want a supportive, loving, and encouraging partner who is uplifting.  We deserve to receive that and in return give it.  Of course, even in great relationships, there is no such thing as perfection, so yes, there will be disagreements at times.  However, I truly believe that with the right partner, even in disagreements, you can communicate in a healthy way, and still love one another, and not feel worried about the relationship.  You will still have that supportive and encouraging partner who will not change simply because of an argument, so choose wisely.  

Ultimately, we must be careful who we choose to spend our life with because it truly can alter our life experiences and determine how much we either elevate or descend.  What do you think?
