"The quality of your life is in direct proportion to the quality of your relationships."

Is there anything more important?
Frustrating that relationships are both the source of great joy and of great sorrow. Things get heated quickly and cooled abruptly.  Two people in any kind of relationship need one another, yet almost certainly have different ways of thinking and doing.  Parents, siblings, parenting, friends, lovers, co-workers, clients...


Check yourself.
Most of the time we are thinking about them when we should be thinking about ourselves.  You have little control over their thoughts and reactions.  Be sure you have at least some control over yours.


Make Amends.
Relationships are complicated.  They represent the shared space and time between one or more individuals.  Becoming aware of our and our partner's personality and motivations is the beginning to healing, communicating, working together, building respect, and trusting one another in the positive and supportive relationships you deserve.

Keep Moving Forward.
All things change.  We cannot hold onto the good times.  We should not hold onto the bad.  Relationships that are built to last will keep moving forward and not drag with them the past.  No matter how difficult, every relationship has the potential to be healthy so long as their is a shared vision between partners.
