On Friendships and Relationships

Sometimes I think we can get on the wrong foot when it comes to how we form and maintain relationships and as males we tend not to be so good at it, perhaps because few cared to show us how.

Focus is a main thing.

Are we wishing to be someones friend or lead others in activities or play for how that may make us appear in the eyes of the wider world, a favourable comment or an attempt to be seen as a leader as if it is about us?

I feel when it comes to motivation being less concerned around that but looking more what we can offer others and from that what we may gain from that - seeing others happy, having fun can be enough

There are things we need to be mindful of,

This speaks volumes to me.

We can get so fixated on solving problems, righting wrongs that we feel we are not making a difference to someone we care about but just being there, walking along side them is really what we need to be doing more.

When you care for some one you just do.

We love them for what they have to offer rather than what wemay feel our needs are.

When was it we last told them we love them?

Do it.

Feel it.

Show it.

Above all, Say it.
