Value of a
relationship
Know what you want
By Imfwama Wotela
Relationships are an important aspect of our lives as we all get involved in them at one point or another. We meet different people from all walks of life who we get involved with, others we forget and still others we
make friends or they become mere acquaintances while they leave a lasting impression upon our lives. They range from
office relationships, parents with their children, husband and wife, boyfriend and girlfriend the list is endless. (Related:

One important thing to note is that we are all a product of a relationship. A relationship in reference to the making of the whole world is like a seed. It grows into a family, a community, a nation, and eventually we have the whole world of people. This population keeps growing because somewhere out there a child is born out of a relationship as new relationships are born daily.

Whatever gift life offers us, I believe it is always vital to understand its purpose, know its use and only then will the full benefits be enjoyed. As you know a gift adds value and joy to life. The gift I refer to is the
gift of a relationship. It is a gift because you meet someone who fills the gap of loneliness, becomes your friend, and brings fulfillment and joy in your life to such an extent that you look forward to seeing them everyday. A
relationship in reference to males and females is a
commitment that we make to get involved with another person, emotionally, physically, and spiritually.

love us back. You feel it when you get back to an empty house after a long day at work and there is nobody to welcome you or talk back to you.

Since relationships provide the very foundation of our world, I believe it is the best place for any tuition about life. It is always easier to teach something at a lower level; I mean before it gets complex. At this level, its important that these two people learn how to relate, to understand each other, and in turn will fit into the world and be able to make a positive contribution. (Related

When you plan to enter a relationship it is important you know that your life will change. The earlier you know the better so that making adjustments will not be a problem. You also need to know what you want to gain from a relationship.
What are you looking for in a relationship? Is it:
A friend/companion (Men
must respect women)
Money/wealth
Love
Marriage/life time commitment
A
child
Good looks/great body
Physical intimacy
If the reasons that you choose for a relationship are wrong, you will end up a very sad person in life because there may be no purpose for a relationship or a poor purpose. A relationship should be able to add value to your life and not take that value away. Ultimately, your happiness if of prime importance.
