"Sometimes it is the person closest to us who must travel the furthest distance to be our friend."
~ Robert Brault ~
I like my relationships to be clean and copacetic- everybody happy and everything good- and yet, relationships by their very nature are not that. They're messy and speculative. We project our insecurities and our past trauma onto the other, and they project theirs onto us.
Relationships are full of mis-perception, and the only way that I know of to right what appears to be wrong is to speak up and share from the heart anytime and every time something emotionally uncomfortable comes up- not to establish fault or blame, but to clear confusion and make fresh room for the love that has been lost.
Communication is the key to all of my relationships.
