Last week Thursday November the 26th was declared a public holiday to allow people to attend the Pope's mass at the university grounds as well as to take time as a Nation to reflect. While Americans celebrated thanksgiving day we in Kenya were supposed to be taking time to reflect.
We wonder how many of you did actually stop and reflect. But as we come to the end of yet another year, don't you think it is a good time for all of us who are married to stop and reflect on the condition of our marriage? And as we do so, may we suggest to you that you take time to first and foremost single out things that you might as well be thankful for. This might seem to be a difficult thing as you begin why? because we so often tend to focus on that which is not working and forget to celebrate and be thankful for what is working well.
This is because we spend a lot of time in the dark room developing the negatives in our spouses or relationship. We rarely get out of those dark rooms to see the sunlight and celebrate and be thankful for the positives in our spouse and relationship. Let me ask you Sir, when is the last time you appreciated your wife for taking good care of your children, cooking that good meal for you and giving you good sex?
What about you dear lady, when is the last time you truly thanked your man for the effort he is making to ensure that you are comfortable as a family, in providing for you and the children and for remaining faithful to you in these days of mpango wa kando? And so as we stop to reflect lets start on a positive note by being thankful and celebrating the good things in your spouse and in your relationship before we quickly look at what can or should be done better.
