Searching for a “Buddha"….


So, I found myself buried in my bed with my book (Ramayana by RK Narayan), time passing by as rapidly as little children grow. Breakfast came and went. Lunch was skipped. And finally I managed to eat a light dinner, with my book still in hand. Of late I have come across so many matrimony stories post marriage – about the way things are everything but right once yours start living with your spouse. This is what provoked me to write this post which revolves about relationships. Who isn't concerned with relationship and the problems that are faces in it? It is so vital to be in accord with your partner. So many times we find a lack of balance in this case. One person is trying harder than the other. There seems no symmetry. These are the kind of relationships that hurt and feel so helpless when you are the giver. In an ideal world, both of you are always looking out to learn. Most importantly – evolving to improve. And I believe you can do both by following these next five and final "Buddha" relational distinctiveness: -Taking delight and enjoyment in each other's company and feeling the “togetherness” - An aptitude to pull together during tough times. - Sturdy links to community and a commitment to being of service to others. - A good wittiness and a capability to laugh and reflect on themselves. - Supporting each other to be their best self. There is some more which I personally wish to add here which are -Letting go of the most fatal question -who's wrong and who's right? -Never going to bed angry. And most significantly in my view: -Learning to be selfless. Not only are triumphant relationships based on endurance and perseverance but just as essentially they are about joy, contentment, things you love doing together, friendship and Love of course. Yes, I would stand in queue to marry a "Buddha". But fortunately, I don't have to; I've already got one. Keep Reading! Auteur
