I feel my life revolves only around waiting for my husband's turn. How do I build a purpose of my own?

Your life is far wider than your husband's turn; filling it with purpose makes you calmer and more independent. Identify one area you are interested in, whether religious knowledge, a skill, a career or community service, and take one small step towards it. Build a network of friends and activities that give meaning outside the marriage. Look after your physical and spiritual health as a long-term investment. When your life is full, your husband's turn becomes part of your life, not the whole of it. This also makes you a happier wife and a more engaging companion.
