You're either climbing up the ladder or going down the ladder. #marriage #relationship

There's no such a thing as a conversation that was about nothing. Every conversation between a husband and a wife brought you closer or the conversation brought you further. My wife may ask me, "Can you go pick up our son today from school?" A simple question, right? It's not very dramatic. But the way I answer it brings us closer or brings us further. I'm thinking, "Oh, really? I have so much to do today and you can't." We just got a little further. Or my wife says to me, "Wow, look at that red bird." And my wife is really excited about this red bird. Sure, let's go see the red bird. And it becomes a moment of simple primal connection. The same is true with Hashem. Every moment in life, am I either getting closer or there's a little distance? Either I'm getting closer to authenticity, I'm like tuning more into my truest divine self, or I'm going further away.
