Well I got this book a few weeks ago. It's geared toward married couples but I wish I would have read it well before we were married. It is also supposed to help married couples with dying relationships. While our relationship is anything but dying, I've gotten A LOT out of it. I would definitely recommend it to any female, that plans on being with a man. I believe it can help your marriage whether you've been married for 1 year or 30 years. It mainly discusses changes you can make to strengthen your relationship, without bowing down to your husband and letting him do whatever he wants. The biggest thing I've learned to change, is my attitude toward Sergio, especially in stressful situations. I've already noticed a difference. I hope that with these changes I can more like the wife God wants me to be.
Every American should be made to watch this movie! Every service member who is killed, gets escorted home, from a base in Dover, DE to their final destination. The body is never left alone. It's based on a true story of a Marine that was killed in Iraq in 2004 and escorted home by a Lt. Col. It was an amazing story, that brought to life that this happens everytime a service member makes the ultimate sacrifice. The numbers the news reports isn't just a number. It's someones son, brother, father. The movie shows the process all the way from the time the body leaves Germany (from Iraq) to Dover, where the body is cleaned and prepared for burial, to the Marine's hometown for the funeral. It was an extremely sad movie, especially with the impending departure of my own brother. It really puts into perspective what a sacrifice men and woman have made over the years for civilians like me. Definitely a must see!!
