Give It A Rest!

Mom, daughter & Granddaughter

As a girl I always wanted to be a daddy's girl and be just him.

Relationship with Friends

All these years I have been chasing after true friendship. Every time I have thought I have found it, all I find is they only see me as a friend with benefits.

Some even decided to betray me in ways that I have never again to trust a friend. Friendships are pretty rare thing lot people don't flourish it the way they should.

Every time a friend helps you when in need, please turn back and help them don't turn your backs on them say you are busy. That gives someone a sense of hopelessness in others.

One said that "if you want to be a true friend you need adjust with them no matter what" unfortunately I don't believe in that because I have seen that friend adjust his life for his friends but his friends don't seem to even think what he is giving up to be there.

I always think friendship must be mutual, not just an added number to your Facebook list.

Moment of Connections

These are connections that I would feel on a daily basis. The person that I would hold the door for or someone passing by that says hi, turned around for glance and smiling gives the sense of connection and pleasure one can't explain.

It's the sign I exist and someone just spotted me. It's essential to lift heads up from our sinking thoughts and acknowledge others, for they need to know they exist too.

Relationship With Self

I am just as important to me, as you are to me. In everyday busy life, time to time I forget who I am. I get lost in the run of life. I no longer know my purpose to being and to community.

Recently, I met a woman, who traveled beside me on a flight from Phoenix to Minneapolis. She told me the reason one gets lost is because they no longer have relationship with self. And that once you have a great relationship with yourself, then you will automatically get the respect you deserve from everyone else. Its a great advice and motto to live by. I thanked her at the end of the flight because I need to here that from some else.

Every time I think of myself the word that comes to my mind is "selfish". In last decade or two that was the pretty popular word that got thrown at me every time I wanted to do things my way, or even wanting to choose my own relationships was a problem.

So here I am with less loving relationships and with more unwanted stress of trying not to be selfish. Therefore, next time if I ever feel like I am making a decision and I stop because I don't want be selfish... I will Just ask myself will this make my life more stressful tomorrow?
