Have you ever felt someone else wanted you to love him or her?

But if you want love. Well that’s a different story. Love means naked, raw, honest, exposed, vulnerability. I hear people say, “I need to trust before I become vulnerable” and that is a horrible lie. The only person you need to trust in being vulnerable is you. Shame makes us worry about trust. Why would we be holding back anything if it weren’t for shame. Shame means we are not worthy of love, therefore, we can’t trust ourselves being open and natural and vulnerable. So we seek out people with the same ego issues and open up to them, only because they agree that we are victims.

All emotion is only half the truth, an illusion; a complete lie. Life is balanced, we distort it by projecting out opinion onto it. We interpret it with our ego and spin it left or right and therefore emotionalise it. By emotionalising things, we can make it safe.

Then, instead of trying to fix and make yourself better (which you can’t) you might start to smile and celebrate the beauty of life, by trekking up to the summit of a hill in Nepal, or kiss a baby instead of trying to fix what isn’t broken.

Reliability of our partner is a primary concern for all of us. It is not only in cheating in relationship but also in wider perspective. If you lose your job for a long time, will your partner stay with you or leave you? Can you rely on your partner? Quiz yourself.

Intimacy in a relationship is the process of revealing yourself to the other person involved. Yet we spend most of our time and energy keeping our true selves from each other in a relationship.

All of us have had friends from the past that we lost contact with. Whether it is an old classmate, an old boyfriend or girlfriend or an old neighbor, we all have someone we have lost contact with throughout the years.

The admen and the marketing mavens have created a cultural expectation around special occasions and calendar events. We are inundated with sales pitches for Christmas, birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, New Year, Halloween, Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Father's Day, and any other day they can find that will make us feel that we absolutely have to buy a gift to express our sentiments. Dates on the calendar are merely days like any other days. Our relationships are 365 days a year and something this good deserves a celebration at any time and at any place.
