My Meditation - Sustaining Relationships
MY MEDITATION - SUSTAINING RELATIONSHIPS
Even though we have the control in choosing who our friends should be, it is outside our domain to know which of them will hurt us. No matter how well we treat people we will not always be in their good books.
Though this is a hard truth it is better we embrace it in our minds so we don't get disappointed when we arrive at such a conclusion. Despite how helpful Joseph was to Portiphar, the latter didn't have a second thought of listening to Joseph when he was accused but went ahead to keep him behind bars.
Hence, in all that we do to sustain our relationships with people we must learn to love everyone but we should not go a step further to please anyone.
