FamilyLife Blended®

When blinded, I suggest you take off your blindfold.

I've talked about how sex before marriage is a blindfold but there is another blindfold to be aware of: Grief. Sometimes when a widower jumps into another marriage shortly after their spouse’s death, or someone rebounds after a breakup only to wonder, “What was I thinking?” – Grief is the culprit. Sadness is often why we buy things we don’t need, watch things we shouldn’t watch, and hang out with people we shouldn’t. Oddly enough, grief is just as blinding as sex and infatuation.
