When a boy meets a
girl, what comes first to him, "love or lust"? When a girl meets a
boy what does she think about," a parasitic or symbiotic
association"? This is the major bane of societal ills in our world today -
the misconception of relationship.
A relationship is a state of
connectedness between people [especially emotional]; it involves mutual
dealings, promotes friendship and allows both parties to grow and develop,
thereby becoming better than they were when they first met. It must have rules
and intended goals.
Every relationship has its
relevance; a nexus, a need to be achieved, whether causal, personal or logical.
Whatever the reason, it involves two or more peoples with the intent to grow,
to become better, to achieve more for themselves. Relationships are not meant
to be emotionally draining, it is meant to be socially and spiritually
edifying.
No doubt there are different
kinds of relationships as there different stages of relationships, but
whichever be the case, there is a state of preparedness to be observed. You
don't just jump into every relationship though the very essence of creation
itself is for relation with one another - Companionship (Genesis 2:18).
When it comes to emotional relationships,
Do you belong to the class of people who just leave everything to chance with
the ever resonating cliché ‘anything that comes out of it is fine by me’, or
‘he / she will adjust with time, just leave him / her alone’. The truth is, it
doesn’t always happen and we end up losing out in whatever form of
relationship we find ourselves.
So what do we do? Simple!
Be prepared mentally. Set the
rules, define the objectives and keep the lines of communication open.
Never forget!
A real relationship has fights,
tears, hurts, faith, hope, trust; it has sweet smiles and genuine laughter. A
real relationship has very weird, stupid and unnecessary arguments, it has
patience, understanding, communication, secrets, jealousy, sometimes hate but
above all, it has LOVE!
So when next you want to relate
with someone, put yourself in check, wear your shock absorber and you would be
immune from any emotional wreck if things didn't turn out well.
Relate well!
May your June be Joyous!
Morning prayer
Lord, you created me to love and be loved. Help me to break out of patterns of isolation and selfishness so that I can know deeper communion with you and with those you have placed in my life. Please give me a heart that loves what is good and in accord with your will. Fill me with your wisdom that I may understand your ways. Give me the grace and courage to reject whatever is evil and contrary to your will. Help me to embrace your call to holiness, and keep me close to you. Shield me today from discouragement so that I can be a visible sign of your love and presence. May you give me the joy of knowing that my life is coming into alignment with yours. Amen.
Good morning
Have a blissful day.
Happy new month.
