Back To Basics
All relationships experience conflict. Marriages, friendships, parents and children. But too many unfortunate souls, seem to be unable to resolve their differences. Their relationship dries up, becomes brittle and breaks apart. A union that once seemed a work of art eventually resembles a discolored and crumbling canvass.
And the amazing realization is this: the incidents that finally destroy a relationship are usually small and insignificant! Momentous decisions and huge obstacles generally don't pull people apart. Most people in committed relationships can stand united when disaster strikes. It is the little problems, the insignificant stressors, that do the most damage when allowed to fester.
Do you know what issue causes the greatest number of conflicts in households? According to a "USA Today" report, people argue most often about which TV show to watch! Would any couple or family have believed that the selection of television programs would become the major cause of their unhappiness?
They forgot what is important! They forgot that relationships are built of such things as love, respect, consideration, kindness, and understanding. They forgot all those compelling and wonderful reasons that brought them together in the first place. Instead, they let minor inconveniences become major issues. In short, they forgot the basics. And they are paying a high price for their forgetfulness.
For healthy and satisfying relationships, it's vital to remember the basics:
· Remember that the people of your life are more valuable than the things. That is basic.
· Remember that there's a difference between inconveniences and hardships. That is basic.
· Remember that the "little things," if left unattended, can hurt a relationship as much as the big ones. That, too, is basic.
· And remember that love between individuals -- friends or family -- is the most precious possession we humans can hope to attain. Above all, other people should be cherished.
It's basic -- all of it. But it's the stuff of happy lives.
