Summary: Finally, a book that speaks to the heart of women
Comment: Did you ever read a book that made you say, "Ah-ha!"? Cheryl McClary's Commitment Chronicles touched my heart and put me back in touch with myself, with what was really important in a sustainable relationship. A poignant, witty guide for women who want to create REAL relationships, Cheryl made me laugh, cry and get out my pencil. I adored her working pages and found myself re-examing those things that are vitally important to me and the man I love. I was given The Commitment Chronicles as a gift. I've passed it on to dozens of women, all of whom have thanked me profusely and we find ourselves sharing all the countless ways that Cheryl McClary's courage and wit have changed our lives. Several of us had the unique opportunity to see her speak. Her wit, charm, sexiness and sensitive words just proved that she's the real thing. Thank you Cheryl. You are an inspiration.

Summary: Practical relationship book to "empower personal happiness"
Comment: After a friend recommended that I read this book, I fully expected this to be a women's lib type of book; written from an up with women, down with men type of mentality. I was pleasantly surprised to see that Dr. McClary did not take this approch. It is written to "empower the wife" to find happiness within herself, and afterwards both parties husband-wife team, working together for the commitment and happiness of the relationship. This books offers humorous examples and practical guidelines for motivating communication, gives hot tips on intimacy and offers attitude adjustment lessons for both the husband and the wife.

Summary: Can we ever get along? Can we ever (truly) learn?
Comment: I wish that Dr. McClary's book really populates bookshelves of as many fellow women (and those of numerous males in women's lives as well). The self-evident and fundamental truth of life, including love life is that in order to be ready and able to give and accept love one has to love herself first. And in real life, on daily basis, in majority of situations. Accepting herself, not seeing self as a victim (naturally, unless there are REAL, substantial reasons for doing so, which is another story, serious and sad). A mature, healthy adult (i.e. the only ones we can expect to live and consume love in mature, psychological and, yes, sexual etc. ways) is not needy in unhealthy ways, is not dependent in unhealthy ways. Is not a whiner, does not succumb to all-too-broad and pervasive "victim syndrome" conveniently blaming others to be source of her unhappiness or selfdoubts. Why? Also because believing that one's happiness etc. can come (only) after the others around me change and improve means, in very real way, that I am giving up the power to change my life, hoping or begging that the others change. Therefore, McClary got it right, although she makes our sons (who are, after all, other women's significant others) mostly inept fools. How we, mothers, have raised so many generations of such bad boys (while managing to raise so good and victimized daughters?) Or, maybe, just maybe, nurture is still no match for nature (or large scheme of things, regardless if we believe in creation or evolution)? I am lucky that all my kids are dauhghters. I have bragging rights to raise "better half" of mankind:)
