“Each relationship nurtures a strength or weakness within you.”
― ~Mike Murdock
Relationships are an inevitable part of human existence. We may recoil from certain types of relationships while in some others we flourish but ultimately there is no life that can persist to exist without relationships.
Relationships form our core beliefs, our morals, and our attitudes. Research has found that we unconsciously adopt the behavior, habits, and mindsets of the five people we are very close to.
We share different kinds of relationships with various people we meet in life like close ones, important ones, romantic ones, complicated ones, and difficult ones. Few add value to us while others leave us dangling.
That is why it is important to pay close attention when we get into a relationship. As per spiritual gurus, all relationships are entangling except the relationship between a teacher and student. Until and unless we practice detachment, we are bound to fall into the trap of cyclic drama.
So, what are difficult relationships?
And how do we come out of this situation?
Difficult relationships hereby refer to those we are bound with and do not have any free will to exercise choice in it. It may be our mother, mother-in-laws, or brothers. People we are connected to before birth and have to uncommonly spend time with them without much of a choice or chance.
And since we are spending a lot of time with them, friction will happen. We will get more easily irritated, frustrated, and misunderstanding will give rise to fights and pain.
But how can we deal with them then?
Here is an inexplicably wonderful rule of nature: We reap what we sow.Today, whatever we share in a relationship is based on our last interactions. The moment we change the nature of our relationship from unpleasant to pleasant, we will begin to lay the bricks of a wonderful relationship for the future.
Again, it won’t be easy. We will have to forgive and bless each other constantly in order to attain the perfect joy, light and balance in each other. Divine forgiveness and reconciliation is the way towards liberation in a relationship.
Stay with
Prerna 🙂
