What my husband will and will not allow me to do
By: Mari Zuvich Montgomery
Life is great when you have freedom. Freedom to speak, freedom to act, freedom to try new things. I just went through a drive through to pick up some lunch, and a soldier in service to our great country crossed the parking lot. I instinctively opened my window and shouted, "Thanks for your service to us," to which he responded by turning around to acknowledge, then removed his cap, smiled broadly tipped his head and said, "your welcome, mam."
We live in a truly great country. On a daily basis, it really helps to think about all those freedoms. In our households, however, those freedoms may or may not hold true.
I have a dear friend who lives across the country from me now who was married to a man who took her freedoms away. She was an artist. She loved to paint. She was really good at it. As a matter of fact, she had reached the point where she was being offered good money for her work. It was at that point that her husband began to forbid her to paint. She tried to sneak in some work when her husband would leave the house. He would leave to take care of church business as he was an elder and spent a lot of his time at church.
Needless to say, she couldn't take it anymore as her soul was being ripped from her body being forbidden to do one of the things that she was meant to do. She is now a thriving and happy artist remarried to a wonderful man.
Freedom is a great thing.
Oh, and what my husband doesn't allow me to do....be unhappy. Thanks baby. You're the best.
