| The Silent Treatment |

A man and his wife were having some problems at home and were giving each other the silent treatment. Suddenly, the man realized that the next day, he would need his wife to wake him at 5:00 AM for an early morning business flight. Not wanting to be the first to break the silence (and LOSE), he wrote on a piece of paper, "Please wake me at 5:00 AM." He left it where he knew she would find it.
The next morning, the man woke up, only to discover it was 9:00 AM and he had missed his flight. Furious, he was about to go and see why his wife hadn't wakened him, when he noticed a piece of paper by the bed.
The paper said, "It is 5:00 AM. Wake up."
Men are not equipped for these kinds of contests.
God may have created man before woman, but there is always a rough draft before the masterpiece.

The weekend is here! At long last! =) |

| Moulder of romantic dreams. |

Long before a teenage girl finds her first real boyfriend or ever falls in love, her attitude toward men is quietly being shaped by her father. I'm one of the many psychologists who believe that the dad and daughter relationship sets the stage for all future romantic involvments.
If a young woman's father is an alcoholic and a bum,she'll spend her life trying to find a man who can meet her needs he never recognise in her heart. If he's warm and nurturing,she'll look for a lover to equal him.If he thinks that she's beautiful and feminine,she'll be inclined to see herself that way. But, if he rejects her as unattractive and uninteresting,she's likely to carry self-esteem problems into her adult years.
I've also observed that a woman's relationship with her future husband is significantly influenced by the way she perceived her father's authority. If he was overbearing or capricious during her earlier years,she may be inclined to precipitate power struggles with her husband throughout married life. But, if dad blended love and discipline in a way that conveyed strength,she may be more comfortable with a give and take marriage where the reins of leadership are not contested. So much of what goes into marriage starts with a girl's father.
That's why it behooves us as dads to give our best effort to the raising of those kids around our feet.

Took the above from 13th December's TODAY under the "Focus on the family" section by Dr James Dobson. I totally agree with what the author says above coz i find myself doing exactly as he 'predicted'-so to speak. It's so scary but yet true. |
