Through our relationships we can know ourselves. We are a mirror for both. What we give to others at the level of our thoughts, feelings and attitudes reflects on ourselves and finally comes back to us from others. Our relationships are the learning laboratory of our life. Every interaction teaches a lesson.The more you get to know yourself in the mirror of your relationships the more easily you will be able to understand others.
As an experiment, take two relationships - one person who is close to you and one person who is not so close, look at it, explore it and ask yourself what it tells you about yourself and your life? Reflect on each relationship and make a note of what each of these people seems to bring out in you when you are with them. What part of your self would you want to see more developed in each of these relationships e.g. humour, patience, humility etc.? What will you do to develop these aspects of your personality?
