Advice

Here is an recent excerpt from the Me Ra Koh Photography Blog.  I feel that the marriage advice Me Ra Koh was given over 14 years ago is terrific. 

"When we first got engaged, a woman at our church asked me if I knew what the meaning of marriage was.  I was bright eyed and clueless to the passionate answer she gave.  She said  

"“Marriage is about fighting for eachother’s freedom–fighting for the person you know they have potential to become–seeing that person living a life where they believe they are worthy of love and all the dreams they carry inside. If no one else will fight, including the person we marry, you commit to fighting for their freedom–even when the fighting is tough love.” "

She encouraged Brian and I to consider this with every choice we made about our future jobs, family culture, lifestyle, etc.  Did our choices help the other person get one step closer to living their fullest potential?"
