LIFT OFF (Part 1)

"Five, four, three, two, one, zero. Houston, We Have Lift Off." I can remember growing up in Orlando, Florida, just 35 minutes away from the Kennedy Space Station and watching the NASA Space Shuttle blast off into outer space. It's truly a remarkable experience. When you are in close proximity to the shuttle during lift off, you feel the heavy vibrations from the rocket boosters as they burn off 11,000 lbs of fuel per second. You hear the roar from the flames and watch as waves of billowing smoke appear. In short, you encounter the sheer force of "lift off". In a strikingly similar way, when our marriage goes vertical other people will encounter the powerful effects of our "Lift Off."
