Relationship Questions?

www.jackkornfield.com The book, "The Wise Heart," reminds one of the importance of compassion and forgiveness.

At times we perpetuate dysfunction in our relationships by staying stuck in the premise of, "being right." Have you ever found yourself trying to prove to your partner that your stance is the correct one?

Who wins? Is it more important for you to win the argument or discussion or to compassionately listen to your partner with an effort to understand? Listen for the meaning of the message.

Why not evaluate or re-evaluate your need to be the winner?

Do the loving thing to connect with your partner with empathy and understanding.

You and your partner will both feel so much better. 💗
