As we all know, relationships evolve. Even those relationships that start off full of light and fire can and usually do cool over time. In some cases, the connection between partners may weaken to the point that it no longer sustains a relationship, in which case the partners may separate. In other cases, the partners may choose to stay together, but with a more emotionally-distant connection. The resulting attenuated connection can become a “fossil” of what it was before.
Despite these tendencies, it’s possible to revitalize a flagging relationship so as to give it new life. That possibility doesn’t rely on forms of artificial “life-support”, but rather on a re-connection with and a deepening of what previously linked the partners. We’ll explore that hopeful possibility, in this episode.
