TWO THINGS FOR YOU TO THINK ABOUT
All relationships require work. Good relationships get better with work. Bad relationships need constant work just to stay the same.
Sometimes it can be the constant desire to “fix things” that is breaking them in the first place.
Reflect: Then consider sharing this thought with others.
TWO THINGS FOR YOU TO ASK YOURSELF
Are you stuck in a bad relationship? It can be a friendship that’s always in crisis, a family relationship that is always causing drama, or a romantic relationship that never seems to quite heal.
If so, what’s the pattern? What’s getting broken repeatedly and who is doing the fixing repeatedly?
Recommended: Use these as journaling prompts for the week.
