Boundaries in marriage and beyond
Imagine a circle with an x in the middle of it. This x represents you. The circle represents your personal boundary. There are things within this circle that you should keep private.
Outside of this circle is your wife. She can be represented as an x too. A circle encompasses her and your circle. These two circles represent your relationship. No one goes into this relationship. There is a privacy and a reverence within this relationship.
Past this circle is your family, community, and general public. These are concentric circles. The further you go out the less access to you you give. The closer in the greater energy and access you allow.
