Here is a wonderful quote I read today that says it all on relationships..
"Nothing is more beautiful than true love. In true love we don't make each
other worry, suffer, or get angry. On the contrary, we have the ability to
offer joy and reduce suffering in our loved one. Because of understanding,
we know how to love, and we don't rob the joy, the appreciation, the
inspiration of our loved one; we don't force our loved one to think like we
think, to act like we act, to like the things that we like, but we let our
loved one maintain herself. In true love there is no discrimination. In true
love we always think of ways to help our loved one to carry out their dream,
their aspiration. And the other person will equally support us in that way."
— Thich Nhat Hanh
