#3: A husband cheering on his wife
You guys are going to think I’m nuts, but this video made me cry. This short 2021 clip captures former Detroit Lions quarterback David Blough watching his wife Melissa Gonzalez race in an Olympic preliminary qualifier. It also viscerally captures the pride and exhilaration that so many men feel inside as they watch their wives “run the race” as an amazing mom, entrepreneur, small group leader, or skilled executive.
Ladies, David Blough may be more pumped-up than your quiet husband. But this is probably how your man feels about your “wins” in life!
I’d love to do a blog on this topic. SO, HERE’S A QUESTION FOR ALL THE MEN READING THIS. (And ladies, please show your man that video, and ask if he’d be willing to take two minutes to answer the question below.)
What is it that your wife does that makes you feel a sense of pride? Or where do you find yourself cheering her on? It may not be extravagant, or related to a competition. But where do you feel a sense of pride and appreciation when you watch your wife? Please share a few anonymous words here.
