Think about this!

Why do we fail most of the times in our relationships in whichever context?
Big question here but have you ever asked yourself why you meet someone and you do not like them or as you go along your relationship fades away or becomes sour?

The simple reason is that we do not take time to find out just slightly more about everything or someone. Instead we take time and energy building opinions and developing attitudes whether positive or negative. More often totals up to wrong investments on perception and therefore losses on relationships.


It takes time and efforts to get to understand someone and for someone to understand you.
This is something you will need anywhere you go until you die. We are all different, we are raised from different cultures and believe in different things but we can live in unity in our diversities.


A friend of mine likes saying that life is about perceptions however things like ethnocetrism, discrimination, racism etc are major killers of relationships, and if you practise any of them really really really you need to look at your self on the mirror and talk to you.


Life fulfilment comes when you give and all i ask of you today is to give a few minutes of your time. Get to know someone and seek to impact their lives positively. Before you conclude find out, then you can may be say "at least I tried." Always have it at the back of your mind that what goes around comes around. Life does not have short cuts but and if you tried you are getting closer to you grave earlier than you should. Same to relationships take your time to know more no short cuts, if you tried you are heading to strained relationships or even no relationships at all.
