Secrets to Successful
Relationship Articles

Over at Pink Apple’s article bank on
Take A Bite we’ve been exploring how
much Respect
and Goodwill we demonstrate in our relationships. 

What turns that head-over-heels love
into a belief that Your Adored One is always "out to get you"?
What would make you think that a nasty attack is the best form of
defence?  Where has that mean spirit come from and how long do you want to
live with it? [more]

We’ve
also been looking at how
useful Curiosity can be in a relationship.  No I don’t
mean prying or nagging, I mean curiosity.  That’s more like exercising
fascination and wonderment at the life of your love.  Curiosity – Might
Have Killed the Cat, but How can it Help YOU?

There’s lots you DON’T KNOW about
your partner and what goes on inside his/her head.

There’s also lots you
ASSUME you KNOW about the mysteries inside there as well.

Why not be curious and
find out more? [more]

As part of the Secrets to Starting
Out Together, we’ve also been exploring how
your Values can impact on the creation of your new wonderful relationship
together in Values:Are
they Worth It?

But how much do you really know
about your own or your partner’s values?  The guiding principles?
The elements of life that steer his/her course and unconsciously influence
her/his decisions?  Without sufficient activities and decisions that meet
with your values, life becomes hollow, dissatisfying and eventually
soul-destroying.

 Assuming that’s NOT what
you want for yourself, your partner, or your relationship, then it’s time to
take a look at values. [more]

When you decide to commit to your
special relationship either with a marriage or some other significant change to
its current state, there
needs to be ROOM for your love, in your life.  We explore
this one more in Is
There Room in Your Life?

But how is it now going to BE
different?

How are you going to make room for him/her EMOTIONALLY,  ENVIRONMENTALLY,
and in your DAILY ACTIVITIES and PRIORITIES?

How is she/he going to see that your priorities have shifted to put him/her top
of the list?  What will be the clear, totally unambiguous signs?
(You ARE making this person top of your priorities list aren’t you?  If
you’re not, then are you deluding yourself, or your partner, about the
significance of the relationship?) [more]

 Apple Tart Articles

Amongst the Apple Tart articles were
various yummy little
morsels.

You might recall that recently I
wrote about getting out of my big muddle.  To do that, I had help from my
friend Angela at
Creating Order from Chaos. For Melbourne-based readers, Angela is running some workshops
and I thought my readers might like to know.    Order Can Be Yours
- and Oh the Peace.

There was also a link to an hysterical little video
about Memories
- Especially for the Boomers.

Of course there’s also the story of the secret blunder I nearly
made.  I bare
my soul in Where Tarts Should
Fear to Tread. 

Recently I’ve been preparing my
article for Bad Mothers Club’s monthly magazine You!  For those of you who like reading Chris Owen articles,
then this next one is a doozy.  I’m talking about that difficult relationship, the one
between mothers and daughters.  You can find out more at Have You Read …

I said it’d be short and as Peter
on the ABC Gardening show would say "That’s your bloomin’ lot."

See you next time, and don’t forget to pass
this newsletter on and help me unveil those secrets of successful relationships!

Warm regards
