Avoid Divorce If You Know What’s Good For You

Let me guess, your relationship is on it’s way down the drain, and you are looking for a surefire way to avoid divorce? Are you having a hard time dealing with the fact that you are about to lose the love of your life once and forever. This articles focuses on some of the most important aspects when it comes to saving a relationship in trouble.

Your marriage is falling apart and you know that unless you figure out how to avoid divorce, you will end up just another statistic among the thousands of marriages that end in divorce.  To be exact, half of all marriages result in divorce today.

You can certainly see how you and your spouse are heading that way.  You hardly talk, you don’t have anything in common anymore, you find almost everything that he or she does irritating, and there’s a high chance one or both of you are seeing someone else secretly.

So how does a couple that’s this far gone avoid divorce.  The marriage experts will tell you that there are three critical steps to undertake when you are trying to avoid divorce –

1.  Recommit to the marriage

Marriage is fundamentally about the commitment you made to each other “to have and to hold, in sickness and health, til death do you part” so unless the commitment is still there, there can’t be any marriage.

2.  Putting aside differences, looking for common ground

As in any partnership, the bond is weakened by differences but strengthened by common ground, goals, interests or direction.

3.  Putting in sustained, continuous effort to save the marriage

Don’t think for a second that marriage is easy to save.  It will require commitment, sustained effort and a lot of sacrifice.  If you have to, get professional help.  Most, if not all marriages, that experience a turnaround from almost inevitable divorce benefited from professional counseling.  If you find these too expensive, you may want to go on the Internet and get marriage help in the form of ebooks and e-courses put out by marriage experts.  They are usually more affordable.

FOOTPRINTS IN CEMENT

I.

Some say that love is
a two way street,
two to tango,
chaste-white sheets,

stay-in-one-place-
fidelity,
his and hers bathrobes,
names carved on a tree,

honeymoons and valentines
and "we always agree",
here-at-eight, dinner out,
romantic walks by the sea.

II.

"Realistically, love is sacrifice,
commitment, compromise,

accepting flaws, second chances,
third tries,

sharing the washing up,
taking it in turns to hush the baby
when it cries,

all this nonsense about romance
and these garish paper hearts
are media propaganda
and Hollywood lies."

III.

Half of all marriages
end in divorce,

it looks like love
is weak, people never stay.

Singleness is the logical
recourse,

we keep away.

IV.
(I am not one to argue,
so I whispered my dissent;

love to me always just felt the same as
leaving footprints in cement)
Candid_carnage – thanks for the star :) to clarify – I don’t really think so low of love! I was voicing alternative opinions, mine is the last (IV)

Background info: it’s set waaay back when in a world similar to ours but different in many ways, near a place similar to Stonehenge.
***
A woman’s high keening pierced the unnatural stillness of the balmy afternoon.
The entire population of the small village, all one hundred and twelve of them, had come to witness the sad spectacle.
A young girl, not yet twelve years old, clung to her wailing mother in the middle of the village square. Her mother clung to her just as hard in return.
A tall, white-haired woman in a flowing silk robe stood in front of them. She held herself straight and tall, and radiated a grave confidence. Only the lines upon her face betrayed her age.
The wise old High Priestess spoke with slow solemnity as she condemned the child before her.
“By all the power and goodwill of the almighty spirits that watch over us, let this girl become sacrifice to you, great spirits, and let her endanger us no more! Protect us! Let her be gone from our peaceful settlement, and be punished for her sins! Let the spirits of fate determine what becomes of her, and guard us from the black luck she has brought down upon us! Shield us from the forbidden magic of yours that she has meddled in!”
The High Priestess paused, inhaled deeply, and called clearly to all the assembled villagers, “Hesta is one of us no more! Her name shall not be spoken again for three twelvemonths from this day – she is the property of the eternal spirits henceforth.”
With that the aging woman cast a cloud of red ochre over the girl, still cowering by her mother at the High Priestess’ feet.
The heartbroken woman broke her daughter’s grip and stumbled away quickly, before the magical ochre could touch her and include her in the curse. She collapsed in a heap at the fringe of the crowd, sobbing and crying out for her lost daughter.
The girl still stood there in the middle of the square, covered in red powder and staring numbly at the people surrounding her, her mind not willing to comprehend that what she had been dreading all this time had actually happened.
Slowly people began to turn their backs and return to their homes. Hesta was already banished, untouchable, to the villagers now. Even the High Priestess turned away – no-one saw the dampness in her eyes and the pain clear on her face.
Tears ran silently down Hesta’s face too, creating smudgy rivulets in the bright dust there.
A wordless cry escaped her lips, and she ran through the familiar streets of the town that had been her home, kept running, until she was well outside the borders of the village. She did not stop until she literally collapsed, black spots clouding her vision.
Gasping and shuddering, she cried herself to sleep in the wilderness.
***
The book is mainly about a boy called Furn, who meets this Hesta when he moves into the village. Seeing as she is banished, she is greatly feared, like the spirits, and there are grave punishments for anyone who is found to be or have been in contact with her. Dispite the rules, they are still friends and continue to see each other without anyone knowing. However, at some stage Furn’s schoolyard enemy finds out and plans to tell the whole town at the upcoming festival. So it is up to Hesta and Furn to come up with a way of making him look like he is lying… dun-dun-DUNN! :D
So: any ideas for improvement?
Any title ideas??? So far I’ve just got ‘Hesta’s Story’ but that obviously HAS to be changed.
Also, what do you think of the spelling of Furn’s name? Should it be Fern (but that’s a girl’s name, right?), Firn, or Forn? I’m toying with Forn at the moment, but it was originally intended to be Fern, or at least pronounced like that.
:-)
This is my first real novel, so please help me out! Thank you! :-)
aw, you people~! *blushes profusely*

youse are making me all full of myslef! lolz. thanks all!
and yeah, i do plan to eventually send it to a publisher… *gulp*
:-D anyway, thanks!!

The world it’s set in is almost exactly like the America in the early 1930s, but with a few major differences. One of these is that ‘magic’ exists. Okay, so it’s nothing like the magic you’re used to in fantasy. In order to gain any sort of supernatural power, a person (It could be a person of any age, but there’s a higher chance of survival the younger you are) goes to a priest who performs certain complicated rituals, and subsequently throws the power-seeker into a fire. You see, to gain magic in this world you have to make a sacrifice to gain the power. For example, the fire would entirely burn off a person’s legs but leave the rest of their body unharmed, and after a while the person would discover and begin to train their new self-levitation ability. Make sense? How this magic system works:

<> Person willingly sacrifices part of their body to gain powers.
<> It isn’t always a body part- sometimes a person could lose their sight or hearing or their ability to see beauty.
<> The sacrifices are random, depending on the movement of the flames. They don’t get to choose what they give up.
<> And neither to they get to choose the gained power. Sometimes it will be something almost useless, sometimes it will be something incredibly destructive or amazingly useful.
<> There is a slight chance that the “fire bath” necessary to gain magic powers will kill, and the chances of this happening increase with age.
<> When powers are used they either drain a persons energy or a tiny bit of a person’s life span depending on the destructiveness/potency/usefullness/power of the spell.

I wanted to try to come up with a way of magic working that has never been used before, and I need enough disadvantage caused by magic so that not many people in my world would want it. How does this sound?
It’s a very odd story, and the main character is actually the villian.

Yes, it’s an odd story. The main character is the villian.
Ha, I LOVE Fullmetal Alchemist. Maybe I was subconciously inspired. I didn’t think of that.
