It seems that life presumes everyone has flunking grades. Everyone needs re-validations. Everyone, every vow, every promise, every love needs to be re-validated (re-valida).
I witnessed several relationships which started like Hollywood love story and ended up in horror. After the 'yes,' after the honeymoon they slowly went into hibernation; they became less and less expressive of their affections: less kisses, less 'I miss you's, less ‘I love you's’, less texts, less calls. They lost steam along the way.
Relationship is like a hungry bear. It needs to be continuously fed . It's not that human being easily forgets. It's just that with the barrage of data coming in everyday, anyone easily gets buried and needed to be pulled out from the rubbles. Revalidation feeds our needs to give and to receive.
Kids knew we love them, but they needed to be reassured every time. Husbands and wives have made the vow in public already, but they need to re-validate that vow every once in a while in bed, in social networking, in text, while walking, while having groceries, while eating and especially while arguing. We re-validate our love whenever there’s an occasion… every time is an occasion.
Please, share
