Get Better pt 2

you’ve decide that maybe there are some areas in your life where you can get better. But where do you start?  Do you take a class or go to a seminar?  I would like to think one of the best places to start getting better is in our relationships with others. It could be with your spouse, your children, your coworkers, or your friends. We are all in some kind of relationship.

Now you might be saying all my relationships are fine, people like me and I like people so that’s that. Is it really that good or could you get more out of your relationship? See, a good relationship is not how well you get along with people when all is well; it’s how well you get along with people when times are rough. So now look at your relationships – are they still fine?

There is a saying, “smooth seas don’t make great sailors”. Even the most inexperienced person can sail a boat in perfect conditions but that’s not so when it gets stormy. We can’t live our lives avoiding rough water just because we are inexperienced at sailing. We have to be willing to get better so that we can have deeper, more meaning full relationships.
