The Holidays are over -- mostly regardless of your heritage, beliefs, or nationality! And just around the corner is Valentine's Day! Why would I start with that in a blog on relationships? Because it is not JUST the season of love, it is the season of a building storm! You see, in the United States between New Year and Valentine's Day, several relationships begin to grind to a halt. "Normal" love life is put on hold, and people "hunker down" to make it through -- especially if there are problems!
Who wants to start up the year with troubles? Most people who see a problem in their relationships decide to put it off. Unfortunately, many spouses assume that since someone is not talking about the problem, there is no problem. But here is the truth: come the first week of February, there will be one happy group of people -- divorce attorneys! People will fill their offices in the first week of February. In fact, there is a stock of divorce filings throughout January to February.
It happens for a couple of reasons. First, there is a buildup of people who have put it off over the holidays. Second, the first of the year marks new beginnings. People with problems decide to take action.
My hope is you don't fatten the pockets of the divorce business. If there were problems before the holidays, they are still there! Take these next few weeks to begin building a framework of healing. But don't wait until February to get started! The attorneys are waiting!
