Humans cannot live alone. We are a social being. So relationships exist. Different kinds of relationship, for we play different roles.
Friendships.... we choose our friends, sometimes our friends choose us. How do we choose our friends? By common interests, common thinking, common goals, common schools... but as humans there are always differences. Are we willing to accept these differences? Do we accept the person for who he/she is? Or do we project our expectations on these friends and expect them to do as we do?
A dear friend mentioned about this saying she read... You judge people by what you are... I agree with it. How you think, how you reason, largely plays a part with how you view others. So be slow to judge, look at the situation from different angles, different views, through different coloured glasses... and do not expect people to think or act like you. Be quick to forgive, faster to forget. Life will be happier.
In a marriage, time dims the romance. Complacency, getting too comfortable sometimes makes life boring. Marriage is how you work things out. Just like any relationship. When kids comes, focus change. But it's always how you compromise, to bring you to many more years of wedded bliss. It might not be as blissful as it was, but always remember the commitment you made, the vows that you promised, the love that you shared. The love is always there.. somewhere deep within you, the spark just needs to be flamed, give it a gentle blow, let it breathe a little more.
Life is always what you make it out to be. Choose happiness, not anger. Laugh a little more, sing louder, dance crazily, give someone a hug, RIGHT NOW!
;) cheers!

think self awareness is the key. Knowing that we might be seeing our own reflection when we judge someone make us think twice before judging. you r getting better at rambling ;)
Hoon...I was watching an episode of Jon & Kate + 8 the other night...Kate mentions...Sometimes, even after having kids, we still have to try make time for each other. Marridges crumble easily; effort is needed to strengthen the marridge. I totally agree with her. I think not only marridge, friendship too. Like u say, time dims the romance. Time is needed to establish the relationship...time is needed to just sit down and talk, have a cup of tea, and just talk and laugh......that is how friendships deepens... So hoonie...as far as i am....hugs hugs....*=*
have been a bit busy and not been rambling much.. but will try my best! ;P
