Becoming the partner you want to be…

“It’s easy to be considerate and loving to your partner when the vistas are magnificent, you are happy and there is no stress.  But when it gets bone chilling cold, you’re hungry and tired and your partner is testy or complaining about how you got them into this mess, that’s when you get tested.  Your leadership and your character will be tested.  You can blame, fight, attack, or become how you aspire to be.”
