What Supports Our Relationships?

I want to camp out here with this whole love, relationships and making a positive contribution to society idea. I think it makes for great conversation. Why? Because love determines a great deal of our actions. There's a saying I remember hearing that goes something like "find a man's heart and their you'll find where his treasures lie. I took that to mean whether it people or things etc....  the heart of the person is where you'll find those things that a person values most. That's one of the reasons why I've never understood why people forsake communication. To me the easiest thing to do is to have a conversation about what's important. You find a person you can trust and communicate with and the rest is made much easier. I say this a lot but must say it again, the times when people are not on one accord is when they don't really talk about what's important. For example you need something from someone but you don't ask. You talk about everything else except what's troubling you. Or you need help and you don't ask. Let me say this, I'm a private person but I've never believed in creating secrets that destroy relationships. They are hardly ever worth it. That's the place I think we have to examine. Am I being true to myself and the people I love. And you can only find that out if you talk and spend time together. I've seen people attempt to sabotage and create havoc in the lives of others and it stems from not being able to be true first to one's self and certainly not to anyone else. So make today count. Reach out, talk to a friend and loved one and share time talking about the truly important things that's on their heart.

Thoughts anyone? Whether it be personal or otherwise what are your thoughts on wholeness in relationships and how they help individuals deposit positive energy to their surroundings? Or better yet, if you want to talk about love, we can just camp right their too. What gets in the way of love is it money, moral character, lack of conversations or something else? Let's hear your comments.

Moments in Love (I shared this with you in 2013) I thought it was a great way to say hello again and wish you Happy Valentines Day

Moments in Love (Reflections by Taneisa Grier) Real & true love isn't sacrificial. Only fools choose to loose time for tomorrows that aren't promised. It's our "todays" love that even carries us to the future love. Find me a "man" who’s experienced health and prosperity and see if he discounts love as being a measure of that blessing. To each its own though. But for me-bid me a love that is true and sweet. A memory of a portion of "good" love may seem like forever in a short span of time. The feeling never leaving and the essence of a touch, though fading still remembered.   "I traced his steps back to the place" where I first exhaled and realized the beauty of this moment is in the feelings that I carry away after the exchange. If fleeting, we might call it lust. But if this pure moment is lasting, we have just seen the love of God in each of us, mirrored reflection of "on earth as it is in heaven". Might I be a b...

TO THE GRADUATE 2016

TO THE GRADUATE 2016 August 1, 2016 To myself, students, and life learners who understand the value of education, knowledge and wisdom. Getting to graduation feels like a voyage with topsy turvy winds. You finally get the hang of it and realize wow I made it –destination arrived. The last day of your final class come and gone or in the fast approaching and the walk across the once elusive stage is near; it’s actually within reach closer than it’s ever been. The day to change the tassel on your graduation cap to the left has arrived. The last door to the academic building you spent the most time in closes behind you. It was designed with lecture rooms and they happened to house many of your secret dreams over the last 4-5 years. And the sometimes sun shadowed hallways lead the way to several doors that will take you to success and journeys which lead to accomplishments.  photo courtesy of the internet The Commencements both an end and beginning to the possibilit...

Where to...

Thought for the day Ethics should not be reduced so low that we ravage the innocence, moral character, or integrity of society. To do so is to morally bankrupt the fabric of our existence. You don't want to look around and have to wonder if there is anything good left to hold on to. I'll tell you the truth, TV has really opened my eyes. As I've said in previous posts, I've never been a big TV watcher. But the past several months has been a provocation of sorts. Many revelations have been positive and insightful but a great deal more have been heartbreaking. Albeit most shows are meant to entertain but, they still create opportunities to learn, often indicating we've got to check our internal compass to make sure we are headed in a positive direction, making our world a better place to live.
