Recently a friend of mine confided to me that he is experiencing hard times on his personal life for he is not in a speaking terms with his partner. And as the days go by, the more that the situation is becoming worse. Somehow, even though he pretends that he is not affected by the situation but deep inside, he told me that he suffered pain whenever he was with his partner and they were not even talking to each other.
I told him that for many relationships including his own, pride is the most common reason of their destruction. That is so true…indeed life is so full of trials including misunderstanding, financial hardships, loss of someone dear to us, pride etc. however if we are able to overcome them then for sure, we will also become stronger to face other forms of challenges.
As I comforted my friend, I told him it is time to lower one’s pride and if ready,
approach his partner then forget everything. Life is so great when we have peace of mind and smooth relationship with others.
