Meet Wendy Strgar

I am in the business of love. My business Good Clean Fun manufactures and sells all natural love products and during the course of marketing and selling our products, I have become an educator on our tag line of Making Love Sustainable.  I have been called a loveologist by some of our customers.  My story is believable because I have been married to the same man for over 23 years and together we have four kids, two of them teenagers.   It is a powerful, if not sobering testimonial; as the number of relationships that end during the course of raising children is staggering.  Of my fourteen year old son's entire elementary school class, we're one of the last marriages standing.  

I feel unbelievably blessed and grateful to say that I am more in love with my husband today than ever before, even yesterday.   This has been a true labor of love and I believe wholeheartedly that the education that this work has provided me, could be of use to other couples who are taking on the larger than life work of building a family.  The concepts of sustainability provide a worthy metaphor for our primary relationships which at its best is the most natural system of regeneration that we have.  

The planet's atmosphere, intrinsic to the health of everything it contains is so thin it is  transparent.  Easy to take for granted while it is functioning, only its fragility demonstrates how critical it is to our survival and teaches us how to care for it.  Real love, the kind that endures after the falling in love goes away, is the atmosphere that contains relationships and allows families to flourish.  Just like the earth's atmosphere it is as fragile as it is powerful and only recognizably so when it is compromised. Learning to care for the container of our love, which makes the rest of life meaningful and beautiful is a task we must embrace.  

The elements that build a healthy and sustainable container of love are not complex and yet each requires attention and education which both our ailing school systems and often broken family systems do not seem able to pass along.  

The ground in our relationships rests in our thoughts.                                                           
The water of our relationships exists in the ebb and tide of togetherness.                           
The air of relationships flows with our ability to communicate.                                      
The fire of relationships is ignited through touch.  

While most relationships may be weak in one or two of these elements, our misunderstanding of how all the elements work together as a system is often at the base of our inability to recover from difficulty in our relationship.
