Shadows of life

Our life is but a series of defining moments,strung together by passing time. Surrender fully to those moments, because it is not the moments that defines us, but how we choose to live it.

Too often we put the cart before the horses in our relationships; and then wonder why we’re heading backwards. Dont fall in love with the idea of love if there’s no REAL love.I know finding someone that will be true to you in a relationship is as hard as finding a teardrop in the ocean.

People put too much emphasis on toughing it out and putting up with the bull… a relationship shouldn’t be a fight. It shouldn’t be a struggle. If both partners are actually committed to one another, it’s not hard at all. Love is selfless. Love is give and take. Love is a two way street. If what you’re giving isnt being reciprocated, you’re not being loved. You’re being used. You cant make someone become something they arent ready to be. If they wont grow with you, be willing to grow without them.Is he or she bragging about you? Then why are you campaigning for them? There is a difference between being someone’s “SECRET” and keeping your love life “PRIVATE”. Understand the difference?!

Is it love or addiction? Many couples are suffering from addiction. Addicted to one another’s insecurities. Addicted to the drama. Addicted to the struggle. Make sure you are not calling an addiction, REAL love. I remember the days when people got together for love first and everything else second. Today it seems to be the opposite. Poeple are together for opportunity. It’s about the money, the connections, the access and the benefits.

The truth isn’t comfortable but if you listen to it will set you free. The truth requires change. That’s why so many poeple lie to themselves about their broken relationships and complacent lifestyles. Stop running from the truth. We are forgetting how to “communicate ” Adults are letting social media ruin their relationships. Talk to your partner and stop letting dms, likes and retweets ruin what you’re trying to build. If you have someone good in your life, dont take them for granted. Don’t focus on their small imperfections, let their flaws make them perfect. Not everyone will understand everything. If you have to keep your phone on lock, or up your ass in a relationship, you’re guilty by association. If you have to delete or hide anything on your phone, you aren’t in the right relationship. Make sure your actions match your expectations.

Compromise, communication and consistency are needed in all relationships not just romantic ones. Truth is everybody is going to hurt you, you gotta find the ones worth suffering for.

Till next time😊❣.
