Family and relationships give true meaning to life. If there is harmony in relationships, this world looks like heaven, but if there is discord or dispute in a family, the same world looks hellish. Therefore, a person must give priority to family and enjoy the world blissfully.
But unfortunately, relationships face a setback sometimes and this is quite prevalent these days. Reasons could be many, but the result of all such situations is the same- anger, hatred, depression and sometimes, lack of love for life, family and worldly connections.
This should never happen. You must enjoy your life while sharing your good times and bad times with your loved ones. And for that, always try to save and strengthen your relationships by bringing harmony in them.
Here’s how.
‘Hate’ and ‘Love’ both are small four letter words. It doesn’t take much time in uttering them. Yet, the sentiment in these words has the power to change the whole meaning of a relationship. They have the power to make or break a connection.
In order to cultivate a strong connection, making it blissful and sustaining it for a long time, let it be based on mutual love and support. Because when there is love in a relationship, there is no space left for selfishness, which in turn is the basis of hatred.
Love also means sacrifice. Love never asks what I am going to receive, rather it thinks, what more I can give to my own people. Love is beyond practical calculations. And when such a pure emotion like love, becomes the foundation of a bond, harmony takes birth naturally.
So make ‘selfless love’ the foundation of any bond, be it a husband-wife relation, brother-sister relation, parent-child relations, or any other bond. Make it the essence of all your relationships and watch it transform into a lifelong connection.
Always give priority to your family, and never your ego. If it is necessary, bend for some time, be humble but not in any case stretch a matter just for the sake of your ego.
If someone is seeking forgiveness, even if it’s not that person’s fault, then understand that it’s he or she who has the capability to protect relationships. Such people understand that my family is more precious than my ego.
Thus, realize the importance of your family and get above your ego because an ‘egoless bond’ is a harmonious bond.
Further, in case of a discord with your loved one, repeat it in your mind that, come what may, I won’t stop taking care of this person and I won’t move in a separate way or stop talking to him or her. We’ll resolve the issue unitedly.
Know that one of the most important bases of any bond is sacrifice and families grow in the soil of tolerance.
So, make sacrifices and tolerate avoidable mistakes of the other person. It will turn your bond harmonious and full of happiness.
Also, everyone needs support in difficult phases of life. So, offer your support to those who you can support and take help or suggestion from those who are in a position to help you. Such Give & Take relationship are harmonious connections.
This should be the formula for bonding in a family and in a society as well. Such relationship of mutual support is a divine bond and everyone should endeavour to develop such a bond.
Finally, it hardly matters, how you are related to each other. Try to be each other’s friend whether you are a husband, wife, father, son, brother or sister; treat the fellow person like your dear friend.
This is because people share matters with friends more frankly and by sharing crucial matters confidently, problems are solved. And when you don’t hide anything from your loved one, it removes misunderstandings bringing harmony to the relationship.
Hence, try to stay away from futile discords and bringing harmony to your relationships. It will happen when you’ll prioritize mutual love & support and stay away from ego and intolerance. Such harmonious relationships will make your festive season even more enjoyable.
