OUT OF SIGHT

The concept of ‘out of sight , out of mind ‘ is what we are going to look at today in our disuss on marital issues.We will try to find out if this concept is true and find a way to correct the age old impression of ‘out of sight out of mind’.
A lot of marriages particularly in our modern society are based on the concept of the man working in another city while the wife stays elsewhere.Do this type of arrangements work ?.I dont think they do , why ? The reasons are not far fetched as one or the other partner will definately fall into the act of temptation and this may leasd to break up of the union.
In my years as a beachlor , i had my own fair share of women and was never absent from my affairs except when the school session is over even at that ,my female friends often end up n the same city where i am holidaying and our affair continues undisturbed by distance..
Now am happily married and relishing the thought of coming home daily from the office to the happy joyful faces of my kids and of course the love of my life.But recently i was faced with this concept then i had to sit down and critically look at the concept that i had never given a thought to in all im life.
The wife and kids left for the country side for a two month holiday at their granma’s and i have been all alone since.I now began to see the reason why most homes crack under the pressure of one partner been away for too long.Most nights especially during the rains i toss and turn about looking for my partner who of course is a thousand miles away from me,then the urge come and i hae to fight it .Let me tell us about the urge which when it comes if you dont remove your mind can lead you astray.
But i found a way to beat that urge and channel the energy to other things that will help me in life. I found out that the urge only comes when i am idle and thinking of nothing , little wonder the good book says ‘an idle mind is the devils workshop’, so what to do ? i redirect the energy that comes into things like writting and boy , do i write on such occassions ?
Meanwhile i make sure that i speak with my family at least twice daily on the phone allowing them to feel my vibration as i feel the absence of their been away from home.Thank God for digital phones and camera i can talk to my family and see them without fear.
I must confess that the concept of ‘out of sight is really out of mind’ very very true as this happenned to me and i had to with the grace of God overcome this feeling that nearly came into my life.Now i can deal with this without fear of any idleness for i have the perfect tonic for it and that is to writ and write without stopping, no matter what.
