My dad sent me this artice. Check it out and see what you think...
Very interesting stories from Hollywood, don't you think? Would that we all could be as down to earth as Sissy Spaseck or Alan Alda. I am not so keen on the Dustin Hoffman philosophy. Pretty sure I flat disagree. While I understand needing space and respecting and allowing each other to freely pursue their own dreams, I would not say "the trick to marriage is living your own life while you share a space."
In an ideal marriage you come back to each other and are best friends. No one else in the world should care about the pursuit of your dreams or the goings on in your heart like your spouse. And no one else should know what's going on in your mind more than your spouse. That's the freedom. Knowing that your spouse knows your rottenest thoughts and most self-destructive patterns, and loves you anyway. I think thats the trick. But that's just me.
