Learning How to ‘Love Bravely’

One morning, I was eating breakfast with Kathy Lee and Hoda and they did a short segment on a college professor from Northwestern University who has one of the most popular classes on campus—“Building Loving and Lasting Relationships: Marriage 101.” Her class is so popular that it has a waiting list longer than any other college class has ever seen.

loving bravelyFor those who are out of the university scene and still want to get educated, Alexandra H. Solomon, PhD wrote a book that includes 20 lessons for the reader to learn more about themselves, reflect on all their loving relationships and be better able to be the type of lover they hope to find. Her book, Loving Bravely, is my newest summer read, from which I hope to have an epiphany and realize what I need to be doing or not doing in order to be the best possible someone that someone is out there looking to love.

I will be chronicling my journey through this book and sharing my personal reflections, when appropriate. Solomon provides the reader with a reflective activity at the closure to each chapter—or lesson. I will provide a quick overview of the prompt and then begin my reflection.

Come along for the ride with me….if you are also reading, please chime in with a comment and let me know!
