The Power of Gird Locking

Grid locking is when you are in a relationship and your dreams are not fulfilled or your hopes are not met or recognizes it can lock up your relationship and ultimately stop it in its tracks. This is something I have been working really hard in my marriage not to happen. When my husband and I were dating he would play soccer all the time and even told me that someday he wanted to be a professional soccer player then we got married and he no longer wanted to play soccer or thought that dream was an acceptable husband or father because it did provide us with a sure income. I am not one that needs lots of material things and I would tell my husband that if he really wanted to be a soccer player that I would support him 100%. He did not listen and instead embarked in a career that he hates because he makes tons of money. Every now and then I ask him if he wants to play soccer or i see about getting him to play in a league and he would always say no. The other day however he came and told me that he hated his job and that he would rather do something he loves then something he hates for tons of money. I was so proud of him because I had been trying to tell him that as long as we had enough money to get by I was good with anything he wanted to do. Now that he has realized that not having tons and tons of money is OK he is going after his dreams and the whole family is a lot happier because dad is a lot happier.
