I came upon an interesting piece about relationships
relating to the way we see more flaws in people as we get to know them better
and we tend to point out all the things that could be wrong with them in our
minds and in our quiet times. When we
see people in difficult situations and how they tend to act and react it gives us an idea of
whether we can work with such a person or whether we can interact with them or
befriend them and this forms the basis for the type of relationship we are
able to have with them. It is certainly
true that when times are tough we tend to see more of the bad than good and we
react sometimes to the circumstances and have little in the form of sympathy
or patience, because we too are experiencing a tough situation. But the most important relationships may be
tested by this, but they also give us a chance to make the tight choices. Giving the perfect answer in any discussion
is seldom achieved, especially where emotions are concerned, but with those we
love, we need to look a little deeper to make sure that the qualities of the
person are still to be found. Patience
and kindness, intentional care and affection and an unwavering willingness to
stay committed and supportive. These
are not always easy qualities to spot and let alone to maintain but the ability
to see beyond darkness and pain and still to feel like your day could not be
complete without the interaction, or connection, or relationship is usually an
indicative sign that the love and human nature is there to stay.
