Tina Arena coming to Perth

Tina_Arena.jpgWe’ve known about Tina Arena’s enormous talent here in Australia for many years but even many Aussies would be unaware of her massive popularity in Europe, especially in France. Tina has also had great success in the U.K., Poland, Russia, and the Middle East.

She’ll be performing at the Perth Concert Hall on Wednesday 25th March and is sure to give fans a night of music to remember.

She joined me by phone on 98.5 Sonshine FM during my programme this morning.

You can hear what Tina had to say by clicking the play button on the audio player at the bottom of this post.

In December last year Tina Arena was awarded the prestigious ‘French Order Of Merit’ which will be presented to her by French President Sarkosky in an official ceremony next month. This is an award which is generally only to French nationals but Tina Arena has obviously made an impression.

As well as her recording and performing career, which takes her around the world, Tina is mum to a three year old son. Together with her husband they spend their time between France, London and her native Australia.

Tina’s current tour will see her perform in all of the mainland Australian capital cities with the exception of Adelaide and her Perth performance will be at the Perth Concert Hall on Wednesday 25th March, at 8:00 p.m.

Characteristics of a good marriage

kiss.jpgOnce a fortnight during my morning radio programme on 98.5 Sonshine FM I chat to Rob Furlong about relationships of various kinds. We discuss how to develop better relationships. The only person we can truly control in our relationships is our self so we also discuss ways to move forward personally so that we can bring everything we should to a relationship.

A couple of weeks ago we started discussing the building blocks of marriage. That segment was just the beginning in a journey that we’ll take over the coming months as we seek to look at the most important characteristics of a good, solid marriage.

Today we looked briefly at a couple of the characteristics which we’ll unpack more fully in the months ahead.

We started off looking at the concept that men and women complete each other, not compete with each other. Rob believes this is the basis of the character trait of Courage as we face life together.

The second trait we touched on today was that of Love, noting that marriage is a permanent relationship.

What do you think are the essentials of a good marriage? Are there things you know now that you wish you’d known before you married? If you’re single, how are you discovering what you need to know to equip you for marriage?
