Re: [RC] [RC] Unsupportive spouses (including wives?) - Juli JakubI think that this is really important!!! We always want our spouses to be supportive of us and our horse passion, but I think we need to make time to be passionate about what they love too! I am so happy that my husband is interested in the horses. But I also try to be interested in his stuff too....I go snowboarding with him ( which I found I really enjoy)...I videotape him when he whitewater kayaks ( just as long as I am not trapped upside down in raging water in one!)...I like to listen when he plays his saxophone ( he is a jazz musician!!) I try to let him know I support him too although horses can get so consuming it can be hard. I am right now trying to figure out a way to have less horse responsibility so I can free up some time to do more of his stuff with him. Right now we can never get away...no one to watch the horses...I am trying to figure out a way to change that so we could at least go see a concert at night or something ( closest concerts are two hours away which is why the horses are an issue!!) I passionately love my horses, but I love my husband more and I feel like he has given me and the horses so much of his time ( and money!) that I have to do something to give back. It is important to remember that they have passions too!! Even if they share in yours!<html><DIV> <P>Juli Jakub</P> <P>The Air of Heaven is that which blows between a horse's ears.</P> <P>~ arabian proverb</P></DIV></html> Sometimes he spends time learning from me and trying to enjoy my "thing", and sometimes it is the other way around. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
