The Root

           Welcome once again to my fellow bloggers and equally to my avid readers and supporters. how was your valentine celebration hope you shared the love and learned of new ways to appreciate yourself and bask in the beauty of the love that surrounds you.
           I would be delving into a sensitive issue today one about relationships. I would also like you to note that these are just my views and they do not reflect how your relationship should be or point out what is absent in it. It is just a way of sharing my opinion (which can be disputable) with you.
           Relationship has been defined by so many scholars and individuals but I do believe everyone has their unique definition for the term because the term in itself is a unique entity different to everyone. Relationships are not necessarily between lovers, they could be with friends, families, schoolmates, colleagues and some people even have relationships with their pets and treasured objects.
           Although relationships come in several forms and in different ways it still hods its roots down in acknowledgement, acceptance, appreciation , respect, trust and love. I am but yet still ignorant of the several faces of love and how it works but one sure thing I have learnt is that love is not like a book you read to understand because it is so unpredictable. Love is what you learn to feel and come to appreciate for its warmness and its strength.
            In every relationship we must be willing to acknowledge that we are ready to try and venture into a world unknown one in which we learn new things and test limits we have never known existed. I do not subscribe to the belief that love is all about putting others needs before yours I believe it is more like loving others just as much as you love yourself. You cannot make others happy if you are sad within can you? Acknowledging the strength that love can give you will fuel your resolve the more to allow room for growth in your relationship
            When I talk of acceptance I like to take it hand in hand with appreciation because once you accept someone for what they are you begin to appreciate them.Remember a relationship is not a perfect picture but it can be a beautiful one. There will always be similarities and differences and this is where the scale of balance comes in to play. You have to accept the similarities in your relationship and by doing that you learn to appreciate the difference that it contains, this scale of balance tilts your relationship into a semblance of beauty.
            Respect, hmm a big word right one we have heard so many times and seen displayed in so many ways. By respecting an individual or a group of people you admire their abilities and their qualities, you regard what they stand for and believe in. Respect is one broad topic that holds a lot of diverse opinion and reaction but still it is one thing we all clamor for. With that said I will leave you with a lovely quote to ponder upon " One of the most sincere forms of respect is actually listening to what another has to say " - Bryant H. McGill
             Till the next time when we will talk about sub topics like trust.
      Thanks again for giving your time to support me may God bless you and to you all I say Happy new Month. Have a blissful one.

Bible passage
"You shall love the Lord with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength" Deuteronomy 6:5
The love of Christ is the greatest feeling ever. Try Him and see that He is good.
