Relationships come and go

Be open

No relationship is permanent 

But it may endure 

When the seed of a new relationship is planted it must be cared for, nurtured and respected 

A new relationship can grow through different phases until maturity 

Through each phase the enduring component is trust

Trust is built through honesty in each exchange 

If the seed of a new relationship endures its first season of heat and cold and water and drought it may live to another season under the protection of your care

Be mindful of your care that if your grasp is too tight you will hinder growth and hasten its demise

Be mindful also that every relationship must be relinquished in the end

So be patient and caring for the other person’s wants and needs

Be sparing with your own
