Good Morning God,
Having been married to my Wonderful Husband for 65 years — I did learn a few things that totally surprised me. Some of them were HOW different we were. And every once in a while I discovered how little I knew about myself — why in the world I did certain things — when they alway got me what I didn’t want.
And because I am basically a StoryTeller — when I mostly figured out what was going on — I set out to share it. This story was one that saved me a lot of heart aches. Not because I could change my behavior! But, because, when I explained what was going on inside me to my husband, he REMEMBERED. What an enormous help THAT WAS!
So, in the hopes that maybe there are other people who are just as perverse as I am — I am sharing this story.
However, there was a 3 month gap between when I understood and when I was able to share with him. Why was that? Because sharing made me feel VULNERABLE. For some reason being angry made me feel safe. Hmm. Maybe that is how quite a few folks feel?
Story teller,
A Moment with God 
Hmm

oh yes, sounds like a perfect time to implement our Welcoming Prayer
I do this too, but now more and more I remember to use the Welcoming Prayer if not immediately then right after and then I realized what I’ve done and I can apologize
I love this story my sweet octopus
