When couples enter midlife together, a myriad of pressures, issues and concerns await them. The children head out into the world while an elderly mother in need of care may move in. A spouse may experience declining health.
Dissatisfaction, depression and boredom, which may have plagued the relationship but been kept at bay for the sake of "the family," could emerge as the children leave home and a couple spends more time together again.
What can a couple do to address midlife issues and bring the focus back on themselves and any facet of their marriage that may have been neglected while the children were at home?
Sexual intimacy often is lost in the balancing of kids, career and housekeeping responsibilities during the childrearing years. Nationally recognized relationship counselors Steve and Cathy Brody offer key insights on couplehood at midlife in their book "Renew Your Marriage at Midlife" (Penguin Putnam, 1999). They recommend the Four Cs of sexual arousal (creativity, courage, communication, courtship) to set the home fires burning again.
The Four Cs excerpted below are from the book Renew Your Marriage at Midlife: a guide to growing together in love by Steve and Cathy Brody*:
Creativity
Don't become the victim of routine.
Courage
You need the courage to stand by your needs and desires.
Communication

Eros and the Circle of Divine Love by David Fideler Love is more than a merely human emotion.

Love is the magnetic pull which binds all of creation together into a seamless unity…
Know Deeply, Know Thyself More Deeply D.H. Lawrence Comments (0) Go deeper than love, for the soul has greater depths,
love is like the grass, but the heart is deep wild rock
molten, yet dense and permanent.
Go down to your deep old heart, and lose sight of yourself.
And lose sight of me, the me whom you turbulently loved.
Let us lose sight of ourselves, and break the mirrors.
For the fierce curve of our lives is moving again to the depths
out of sight, in the deep living heart.
