Turbulence
It takes love, patience and understanding
Because relationships can be so demanding
Demanding our time, energy and attention
Sometimes feeling like impossible missions
Translation from man to woman gets misread
Then heated "talks" have 'em both seeing red
Fed one thing but assuming contrary
Making many not want to marry
Heavy ship turbulence throws 'em overboard
Energy depleted from not being on one accord
Doesn't matter if driving a Ford or Tesla SUV
The roads to blissful unions can be very rocky

Dear D,
It’s been a terribly rough day with exactly what you have written. I am so appreciative of the perspective and validation I could weep. Some days I can’t remember why I wanted to be married so badly? 🙄
Fantastic write. H🌷

Communication is key.
More importantly, speaking the same language is paramount. Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese sound almost the same to those who only speak English. Gotta make sure that what is heard matches what is intended

Misunderstandings are so easy. Communicating context is full of perils. Especially in small comment spaces.

Communication, particularly in this medium, is very tricky. Misunderstandings can abound. If the internet doesn't prove the power of words, nothing will.

Just like life, nothing is perfect, it takes a lot of work and dedication (and passion of course) to stay in love. Wish I had this knowledge or understanding when I was younger, but those are life's lessons.
Excellent and insightful Damon.
