PRINCIPLES
FOR GOOD RELATIONSHIPS....
I WISH
I HAD LEARNED IN KINDERGARTEN.
You
can't expect to HAVE what you want if you dont ASK for what you want. Just
because you FEEL BAD doesn't necessarily mean someone did something WRONG. Just
because you FEEL GOOD doesn't necessarily mean that what you're doing is RIGHT.
Integrity matters not for the people around you, but for YOU. Life rewards
people who move in the direction of GREATEST COURAGE. An EXPECTATION on your
part doesn't incur an OBLIGATION on someone else's. When you feel something
scary or unpleasant, TALK about it. Your partners add VALUE to your life, treat
them PRECIOUSLY. Make sure your partners HEART is safe in your hands. The
easiest way to ATTRACT people with the qualities you desire is to BE the short
of person that someone with those qualities finds interesting. People aren't
COMMODITIES. There are a whole lot of things you partner will do that are NOT
ABOUT YOU. Different people express LOVE in different ways, learn to recognize
the way your partner speak of love, so that you know it when you see it. Don't
treat people the way you'd have them treat you, treat them the way they'd have
you treat them. Pay attention. We are all born of frailty and error, it is
important that we FORGIVE one another's failings reciprocally. Being in a
relationship that doesn't meet your needs isn't necessarily better than being
alone. Love is ABUNDANT. its not necessary to be the best at EVERYTHING, or
even the best at anything, alone of the people in the world, only you bring
your unique mix of qualities to the table. Relationships entered into from
CONSCIOUS CHOICE are often more rewarding than ones entered into out of default
assumptions. Don't play games, especially with other people's HEARTS. The
things you think are important when you're the orizing about relationships
aren't always the things that turn out to be important. Be FLEXIBLE. A
relationship with a partner who is with you because he or she can't leave. Real
security comes from WITHIN. People aren't need fulfillment machines. Don't look
to others to COMPLETE you. CHANGE is a part of life. Occasionally, you will
feel awkward, uncomfortable, or both, that's normal, and not something to be
feared. we are all lousy at predicting how we will respond to new or unfamiliar
situations. When you hurt someone-and you will-suck it up, take responsibility
for it, and do whatever you can to make it RIGHT. There will be times when
relationships END, it doesnt mean they were a failure, or that the other person
is a bad person. Your heart will, at some point, almost certainly be broken,
and that's okay, you will survive, and find love again. Feelings are not FACT.
Fear of intimacy is the enemy of happiness. The times when compassion is the
most DIFFICULT are the times when it's most NECESSARY. Dont vilify those who
hurt you, they are still people, too. it is possible to deeply, profoundly love
someone to the bottom of your heart and still not be a good partner for that
person. Being uncomfortable is not, by it self, a reason not to do something.
its almost impossible to be GENEROUS or COMPASSIONATE if all you feel is fear
of loss. The world is the way it is, not the way we want it to be. Life's song
is filled with beauty and chaos and joy and sorrow and pain and uncertainty and
ecstasy and heartache and passion, to fear any of these things is to fear life.
