  • PART 2 - Here is the follow up film with Margy and Antony one year later - • WHAT is LOVE
    Whether you're still in the exciting stages of a new relationship or have been married for decades, everyone could use a little relationship advice once in a while.
    And as Antony and Margy share with us in this film, love is like a boat on the ocean - full of ups and downs, currents and ripples, favourable winds and foreboding waves. Mistakes in a relationship are inevitable. But keeping those mistakes forgivable and learning how to deal with the fallout, is the key to a long-lasting relationship.
    And if you feel you've found your heart's other half, we wish you endless days of joy and laughter, and countless nights of deep embrace, unraveling the mysteries of the universe together.
    Filmed at Colesburg, South Africa.
    Featuring Antony and Margie Osler.
    All of our films are made possible through the generous support of our patrons.

    I've now been married to the same woman for 51 years. We LOVE one another. She's my best friend! She's my buddy. We've hiked over 18,000 miles together. We've prayed thousands of hours together. We've read and studied the Holy Bible together for thousands and thousands of hours together. We garden together, we live on our Homestead and we LOVE life and we LOVE living. We are together 24/7 and truly enjoy one another's company and presence. Marriage is magnificent to her!

I have a weak heart and often wake thinking I hear him in the kitchen. I believe I will see him soon. This couple are lucky to still be active and happy. Bless them.

    I come back to this video a lot. My parents are in an incredibly toxic marriage but won't separate. They've been together for 34 years. There's no more humor, no more intimacy, no soft and patient love between them. I go back to this video to remind myself what love looks like. To everyone with parents who are in a toxic relationship but won't divorce, I feel your pain. It sucks, and I hope things get better for you soon. We all deserve to be happy.

      Scrolling through the comments and I had paused here (and other comments 😅) because I relate to having toxic parents that lost the intimacy and breakdown of communication over 30 years. And I don't want my marriage to end up like my parents, even if I had done wrongs in my relationship. I wish you could find your happiness too

      I'm a parent in a toxic relationship but won't divorce because if we get divorced I would be out on the street with no security after grafting to pay a mortgage for 20 years while she would live on in comfort and security in the family home but that's just what it's like for a man in the 21st century.

    I came across this and thought it insightful: "Let someone love you the way you are - as flawed as you might be, as unattractive as you sometimes feel, and as unaccomplished as you think you are. To believe that you must hide all the parts of you that are broken, out of fear that someone else is incapable of loving what is less than perfect, is to believe that sunlight is incapable of entering a broken window and illuminating a dark room.”

    I've been married for 10 years and it's been all over the place. I dont think knowing yourself matters much in marriage because from my experience, we are constantly changing and adapting to our world.
    Who I am today is unrecognizable from the person I once was. I learned how to compromise on the things that matter and let go of what is destructive because I now want nothing more than to both inspire and protect my wife and the children we've been blessed with. Every up and down is a chance to learn and craft a story to help those to come.
    Life is a journey, and we have learned to let things come and go, but the one thing we won't let go of is our commitment to each other. We will keep fighting for the love we share, inspiring and lifting each other to new heights and pushing ourselves to be the person we need to be. I praise God for my wife, kids, and story that has made me who I am today.

    People have a hard time finding this because they’re too caught up in “a type” and reject people who don’t fit the perfect image of who they think they want to be with and focus on physical such as height, complexion, style , how much money they have and other societal things etc. instead of the soul … it’s all about connecting with the soul and that person probably wouldn’t be your exact “type” at first on a 3D level but then they become everything you ever wanted in every way 💜🦋

    Being accepted for who you are - so important. That doesn't mean not bothering to be "better" but that the other person isn't spending time wishing you were different.
    Nice to see them laughing together so much, but also pursuing separate hobbies.
    I think the support for each other and the realism - acknowledging yes, you could kill them sometimes - are both important. Don't expect perfection! Also, making sure you stop and have a cup of tea together and a chat or make time for a walk.
    Delightful couple.

Relationships and marriages should extend beyond mere romantic love, evolving into enduring commitments characterized by love, gentleness, gratitude, respect, tolerance, service, and a shared responsibility for societal harmony. Above all, anchoring our intertwined lives with the presence of God and steadfast adherence to virtuous values is paramount.

    ❤️..." there's a sense of reaching out, putting a ladder down into a hole, where they've climbed so they can climb out, ya know?...or one can climb down and dance down there and say "Oh that darkness is quite fun" .."Holes and ladders, We play holes and ladders all the time" ❤️
    What an awe inspiring couple! Thank you Antony and Margy for giving the world a glimpse of what a healthy, truly happy marriage looks like!
    ✨️""Let this relationship change me in whatever way becomes natural, in the interaction between us"✨️
    When asked if Margy will be "ok", if something happens to Antony, her response is just so beautifully rich with acceptance and emotional security. She says:
    🕊" I would miss him terribly, but I feel I have enough of an internal life that has been fed by my love for him, and his love for me that will sustain me:🕊
    How many people.could say that!? Absolutely beyond beautiful!🥲

    I'll never forget the first time I visited Poplar Grove: Margie was in town, just doing errands, and Antony said he hoped she'd be back in time for evening meditation. She got there just as we had all entered the Zendo and about to get started. They gave each other the warmest hug and loving kiss, and the joy of reunion was tangible - like they hadn't seen each other in months, rather than hours. I'm so blessed to have such a great example for my own marriage and family. And gosh, it's lovely to see them both looking healthy and happy, and the Grove looking so lush. Do visit the Grove or read Anthony's books, if you ever feel the calling - I cannot recommend it highly enough. 💗

I do love their laughter and also she gave me a great reality. That your person deserves to be loved and Grace even though you want to kill them sometimes.

This couple, in their calm, experienced joyful wisdom is such a great example for young couples, no matter if they are still madly in love or out of love and in trouble. I’ve gone through tremendous hard times with my husband and we are stronger and happier than ever, deeper and more profound than ever. But it takes courage and work and a lot of faith to get through it. It’s so good to see that staying together has great rewards down the road.

    I can't bear it anymore.
    I SIMPLY CANNOT.
    I AM TORTURED
    AND TORMENTED.
    I'm drowning in turmoil
    and grief and emotional pain.
    I just try so very hard to heal from the PTSD...
    But the PTSD flashbacks rape my soul...
    🕊 💫✨
    I will experiment with healing myself,
    using the below affirmations:
    I am loved
    I am beautiful
    I am secure/safe
    I am worthy of true love and real friends
    I love myself and my life
    REMINDER TO MY SWEET BABY GIRL:
    If we're chasing butterflies, they'll fly away...
    When we're busy creating and tending our garden,
    the butterflies come to us.
    Don't chase.
    Attract!❤💕

    This was so completely touching. I cried. When I look at people who have had good long marriages, I see this comfortability in them. It is this comfort and strength I feel. My parents always said living with someone who is a stranger is no easy thing. However, through overcoming hardship and having very similar values I saw this amazing and touching friendship grow in my parents. And even now they learn from each other. It is something God willing, I hope I am able to have too. I wish that many people would also know this. To not be so consumed and addicted to immediate intense attraction but know that hardship is a part of life.
    I also think these two people were generally healthy minded people when meeting, but for those who have had a lot of hurt finding healing is vital to sustain a long term relationship. If you do not fight your own demons, those demons are brought into the relationship and it creates this tornado. I pray that our society finds healing so the hurt does not grow and continue.

    How she laughs at everything he says, so beautiful. That is crazy being accepted completely for who you are right from the start. That must be a marriage made in heaven. I'd guess that really doesn't happen in almost all cases. In my case it has taken years and years to accept each other for who we are, in fact still working on it after 60 years. Don't hold onto stuff, great advice. Great video.

    This couple was very honest in how they communicated their marriage. Don't expect a version of perfection, a perpetual postcard version of marriage. I'm sure that would be boring, after all, we humans are so fickle! Expect a dynamic version with plenty of opportunities to learn about what ticks you off so that you can explore why and is it necessary, am I actually "right" or is it neither right nor wrong, and so much more! This is also how our marriage is. And we are growing old together. My husband also happens to get up first to make my coffee in the morning, while I set it up the night before!

    The fact that they laugh together is a very good sign.
    When I met my then boyfriend over 21 years ago, we shared a particular spiritual commonality, and she has repeatedly appeared before us, when we most need it. We take care of each other, sometimes begrudgingly, but we do it, nonetheless. We married to celebrate hubby's revival into life after 13 months of depression and the mental catatonic state he was in. But there is an undercurrent of giggles and laughter that permeates our lives on a daily basis.
    Hubby has a background tape that plays, (due to his bi-polar state) and it can change daily. And I know something is wrong, when that tape stops playing. Then I have to figure out how to get him to turn it back on.
    We have been through many storms and many good days as well. We'd rather ride the wave, than have it drown us. So we strive to try and ride the wave as much as possible. We are in our mid fifties and I am nearing 60 now, so life's little "issues" have begun to surface, which has thrown us into deeper water. We are learning how to navigate that deeper water these days.
    I heard this long ago that, "A couple should never go to bed angry." And we don't. Thanks to the laughter we share.
    It is called the "Little inside joke scripts, the back and forth language of love."

    I'm glad I came across this. I was on the verge of giving up on love but this gives me hope that true love still does exist. What keeps ringing in my head is when she said the first time she met him she felt like she found a part of her in himself, there was something that felt like home. That's exactly how I felt when I met my boyfriend and I couldn't explain or put the feeling in words. Thank you🙏

    Finding ourselves together... integral and integration... being natural in the interaction... a flow, the flow... listen through the eyes of another... playing holes and ladders (smiling))... let it go quickly, a short story of tolerance... the fruit of daily love lessons... infuriating, a breath of fresh air... enter with enthusiasm... a cup of coffee in the morning, a cup of tea in the afternoon
