ARE YOU TOO BUSY FOR FRIENDSHIP IN YOUR MARRIAGE?

If you currently feel that you don’t have enough friends in your life, one reason may be that you have let yourself become too busy to make time for the marriage you already have.  

 

Nurturing and maintaining friendships requires effort and commitment.  Many of us let our lives become so busy with work and other commitments that we do not get around to scheduling time for pleasure and renewal with the friends, relatives and acquaintances we already have. 

 

If you haven’t been quite happy with your spouse lately, is it because you have become too busy?  Have you grown apart?  Was there an argument? If the main reason you haven’t been getting together with the people you already know is because you have gotten too busy, take a good look at how you spend your time.  

 

Compare it with your real values and priorities in life.  Is your hectic lifestyle really bringing you the quality of life that you want? 

 

If you have become too busy for friendship in your marriage, why has this happened?  Are you pursuing material things in your life at the expense of friendship with your spouse?  Have you allowed your time to be over-committed because you never say No to anyone?  Do you insist on doing things yourself that could be delegated to others?  If so, why?  Do you believe that everything depends on you?  

 

Examine whether the way you are currently spending your time accurately reflects your deepest  values and priorities.  Make sure that you schedule adequate time for the things that are truly most important to you.  If you really want to build friendship in your marriage, make a space in your schedule, and a space in your heart for them. Friendship in marriage is the spark that ignites everlasting flame.
