Married almost 48 years, I look back on the times I've 'taken away' chips from my husband, instead of adding more to his stack, by speaking negatively in a situation.  It is difficult to think of the past and realize that one has been been hurtful to a loved one, tearing him down with the spoken word, instead of building him up with positives, and I hope this lesson lives with me every day of the rest of our lives together. Thank you Meyersons for such insight into the human relationship. The Meyerson’s article on Poker Chips really spoke to me…made me sit up and recognize  myself.
