To be wounded by your own understanding of love;
And to bleed willingly and joyfully.
To wake at dawn with a winged heart
And give thanks for another day of loving;
To rest at the noon hour and meditate love's ecstasy;
To return home at eventide with gratitude;
And then to sleep with a prayer
For the beloved in your heart
And a song of praise upon your lips."

3 Quotes About Relationships

Relationships are hard work! Whether you're talking about romantic relationships, sibling relationships, relationships with friends, colleagues and even acquaintances - all these forms of relationships bring with them difficulties, and relationship questions you'd like answering.

Well, Jagat Cinta have good news for those of you looking for relationship advice online. There is an 'easy solution' to all your relationship woes, and that solution is YOU...

And that's what this relationship article is going to be about. And, together with 3 quotes about relationships, we're going to discover how WE - you and I - can improve our relationships by simply improving ourselves, and how we respond to life...

Relationship Quote #1:

"Problems in relationship occur because each person is concentrating on what is missing in the other person."

-- Wayne Dyer

So let's start with a basic truism about relationship problems. If we continue to think it's the other person's fault our relationship with that person is going to continue being a 'problem'.

I know that life would be a whole lot easier if this other person (that you're having relationship problems with) would one day just realise how foolish they've been, if they'd just 'see the light', and admit that they were wrong; that they'd just change their ways.

But it's not going to happen any time soon, mainly because it's just not true. It takes two to Tango, in any relationship. Which means, no matter if a relationship is going well or going badly, it's both your 'faults'.

And that's what Wayne Dyer's rather succinct quote about relationships reveals.

So STOP, stop looking at what the other person is doing wrong and START, start looking at what you could be doing better. Start looking at the relationship from the other person's viewpoint - a little bit of empathy goes a very, very long way. Talking of which...

Relationship Quote #2:

"Personal relationships are the fertile soil from which all advancement...all success... all achievement in real life grows."

-- Ben Stein

Yes, perhaps the whole point of relationships with others - romantic, or otherwise - is to show us 'ourselves', the good bits and the bad.

Of course it never looks like that, when we meet someone that we really do not like, that we argue with furiously. But these are the relationships we should treasure, he said counter-intuitively, because these are the relationships that are trying to reveal to us 'secrets' and 'dark places' that we'd rather not have revealed.

Relationships challenge us. And if we're being honest, we know it's NOT just because the other person is challenging. If we're being honest - and being honest with yourself, and then with others, is a vital ingredient to having healthy relationships in your life - we know it's because we have yet more to learn about life, and about ourselves.

That's what ol' Ben Stein means with his inspirational quote about relationships.

For when we recognise, then meet, then overcome our relationship challenges, then we grow as human beings, we grow...

Relationship Quote #3:

"The purpose of a relationship is not to have another who might complete you, but to have another with whom you might share your completeness."

-- Neale Donald Walsch

Hmm, and when we stop looking outwards for help, start looking inwards again, then we can then become strong enough to not need to be in a relationship, then we can begin to enjoy our relationships like we never have before.

Strong, healthy relationships are about being open (vulnerable) to what life (and your relationships) want to bring you. You do not attach yourself to specific outcomes, instead you trust that whatever comes your way you are strong enough to fully embrace.

And then, then you can share your completeness with another, and life truly will feel all that it can be...

Openness, vulnerability, and truly 'being seen' - all of these states of being will help anyone, no matter how 'advanced' and 'wise' they are, have more fulfilling relationships.

But it all starts with recognising that a) blaming 'the other' is not the solution, b) relationships are meant to be challenging, to teach us about ourselves, and c) when we grow as human beings, the quality of our relationships grows likewise...

Can miles truly separate you from friends.... If you want to be with someone you love, aren't you already there?

How like a winter hath my absence been
From thee, the pleasure of the fleeting year!
What freezings have I felt, what dark days seen!
What old December's bareness everywhere!
~William Shakespeare, "Sonnet XCVII"

Nothing makes the earth seem so spacious as to have friends at a distance; they make the latitudes and longitudes.
~Henry David Thoreau

If I had a single flower for every time I think about you, I could walk forever in my garden.
~Claudia Ghandi

Within you I lose myself...
Without you I find myself
Wanting to be lost again.
~Author Unknown

Parting is all we know of heaven and all we need to know of hell.
~Emily Dickinson, "Parting"

Gone - flitted away,
Taken the stars from the night and the sun
From the day!
Gone, and a cloud in my heart.
~Alfred Tennyson

Absence from whom we love is worse than death, and frustrates hope severer than despair.
~William Cowper

If you think that you were once in love, but fell out of it, then it wasn't love you were in. There are no 'exit' signs in love, there is only an 'on' ramp.”

Love Quote of the Day

Love Quote of the Day

Love feels no burden, thinks nothing of trouble, attempts what is above its strength, pleads no excuse of impossibility... It is therefore able to undertake all things, and it completes many things, and warrants them to take effect, where he who does not love would faint and lie down. Love is watchful and sleeping, slumbereth not. Though weary, it is not tired; though pressed, it is not straitened; though alarmed, it is not confounded...

"Eleven Hints for Life"

"Eleven Hints for Life"

1. It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return. But what is more painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let that person know how you feel.

2. A sad thing in life is when you meet someone who means a lot to you, only to find out in the end that it was never meant to be and you just have to let go.

3. The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had.

4. It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.

5. It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone-but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.

6. Don't go for looks, they can deceive. Don't go for wealth, even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.

7. Dream what you want to dream, go where you want to go, be what you want to be. Because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.

8. Always put yourself in the other's shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the person too.

9. A careless word may kindle strife. A cruel word may wreck a life. A timely word may level stress. But a loving word may heal and bless.

10. The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.

11. Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, ends with a tear. When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you're the one smiling and everyone around you is crying.
