Being in a relationship of any kind should be regarded as a privilege, it's not mandatory - I don't have to, I choose to.
If for example I find myself one day, realizing I am no longer enjoying my relationship with a close friend- Something in the energy "got spoiled."
I have a choice: if this person is important to me, I will tell that person what I am feeling, and in order to make things better I will do my very best in understanding what went wrong.
Conversely, if I believe that my life will be better off without them in it, I can kindly "exit the scene." With no hard feelings.
Just moving on is all. I may not presently realize why this person entered and now exited my life, but i will come to realize what purpose this person served one day ....
Nobody "owes" anything to anyone. That's why we get hurt when we have high expectations - our fantasy of how we want others to be, say or do things according to our vision of reality is sometimes blurred.
Relationships require care and attention. If we don't invest our time remembering we "have this relationship", if we take it for granted, it may no longer be ...
A good relationship doesn't come for free. Without investing effort, mindfulness, and mostly unconditional love, it will be damaged. Sometimes irreversibly...
Imagine what this world would be like if we all showed more kindness, empathy, and heartfelt understanding to one another... more compassion more of a sense that we are all in this together, united as one cosmic force?
What if...?
