I’m not free of mistakes in this. I was not able to find a way to keep my mouth shut about her liberal ideology and her moral values being bestowed upon our kids. . I let it bother me too much. I was judgmental about it. I tried to get her to change who she is. I wanted her to take the news, her ideology and the liberal activism out of our marriage. I did not like her going to pride parades and volunteering to hand out condoms and needles for the addicts and celebrating this lifestyle. When I spoke my mind about the liberal ideology she took it as criticism. I was not able to find the kindest softest words to express myself without offending her. In her mind I did not accept her 100%. She may be right in feeling that but I still accepted her even with the things I did not like. Someday I hope to get to a point of forgiveness towards her for her ideologies and understand that is just who she is.
