Love is a feeling, marriage is a contract, and relationships are work. True love is always unconditional. Healthy, loving relationships are never unconditional. Relationships end when you are the only one whos trying. It takes two to work a relationship. Relationships are built on all different foundations, but the ones that last are built on trust and open, honest conversations. Relationships form the foundation of all our experience; they shape us from the moment we are born through the moment we die. Relationships happen. They form regardless of our intentions, they are as effortless as breathing. Yet a relationship that strengthens you can be the most elusive thing in the world, hiding always in your own shadow. To truly know someone, to create a relationship that feeds your spirit, you must open yourself up, become vulnerable, be a child in awe and fear. This is the most terrifying thing, more frightening than any disaster, any harm that may be visited upon us. And yet, to let go, to dive into that fear, gives life meaning. It is the most exquisite joy, and the greatest triumph of human life.
