When we feel incomplete

“When we feel incomplete, we might search for somebody to complete us. When, after a few years or a few months of a relationship, we find that we’re still unfulfilled, we may blame our partners and take up with somebody more promising. This can go on and on until we admit that while a partner can add sweet dimensions to our lives, we, each of us, are responsible for our own fulfillment.”~ Tom Robbins

We should certainly use what inner resources we have but it’s not true or right to think we are ultimately alone and of little use to others. A healthy relationship brings the gift of sharing our troubles and supporting each other throughout the ever-changing journey of life. We should never underestimate the power and value of visibly caring for and cherishing our loved ones, even a kind word or good deed for a stranger can make a big difference. These are difficult times for many so it’s important to remind ourselves that we get what we give and together we are stronger. ~ Tommy Cowap
