P.e.a.k. ways

This is a manual for choice making when couple relationships begin to suffer and difficult passages become more frequent. One assumption is that both partners intend to preserve and enhance the relationship they have formed. ?COUPLE? is defined as a two-person relationship wherein each regards the other as ? SIGNIFICANT?! This would include special friendships, people who live together, people who are engaged, and people who are married to each other. The suggestions provided in this reading may also apply to colleagues, fellow workers, neighbors, and those of you who enjoy doing ?Random Acts of Kindness? occasionally as well as intentionally. These ideas have accumulated since 1954, and have developed in design and teaching of a special course entitled ?Facilitating Interpersonal Relationships? and Workshops at Miami University, Indiana University, and Eastern Illinois University. This work is intended for all of us who have hoped that all was well and discovered that it wasn?t, and didn?t quite know what to do about it. Stride firmly as you find things that may make positive differences for you and the significant ones whose hopes are blended with yours.
