When Communication Breaks Down

What do you do when you know someone close to you, your loved ones, are facing a rough patch in their marriage???

You console them, talk to them, advice them, share your own real experiences with them and hope that they will change their mind and think again.

When it comes to my own marriage, i never knew how to handle or maintain. But i'm not ashame of seeking help or advices from others. And thank god, Thomas and i are still walking down life's journey hand in hand.

I then give advices (that i got from others) to people who turn to me or need them. However, this time, i failed. I do not know how and what to do to help this couple (family) who meant so much to me. I just hope both of them can sit down and talk things out, as i believe through proper communication we gain understand. Through understanding we gain trust. Through trust we gain more love which is the foundation to build and maintain a family (marriage).
