Love is Not Jealous

Day 8 Dare:
Determine to become your spouse's biggest fan and to reject any thoughts of jealousy. To help you set your heart on your spouse and focus on their achievements, take yesterday's list of negative attributes and discreetly burn it. Then share with your spouse how glad you are about a success he or she recently enjoyed.
 Have I ever been jealous of my husband? Well, I have been jealous that he gets to have adult conversations all day while I only had kids. Then I got over that. He used to call during the day to see how everything was going and that helped. Then I realized how lucky I was to be able to stay home with my kids all day.

Then I was jealous of the attention he gives those lovely porn stars. Then I realized they must have pretty pathetic lives to have to sell there bodies like that. And pretty sad that my husband turned to them to feel love. We saw a documentary about porn and it effects etc. They are trying to get legislation so we can block all porn from our homes if we choose. That would be awesome.  It also showed the life of these porn stars yuck. Not a life I would want. Here is the trailer for the movie. It was very interesting.




Last time I did this dare I burned the list then I tried from that point on to focus on his positive traits. I wasn't always successful but just burning it and making that commitment helped me a lot. I look forward to doing it again. Today I will be my husbands biggest fan. Have a great day!
