Our whole life consists of building relationships. We build relationships with our parents. Relationships with friends. Relationships with food. Relationships with money. Relationships with children. Relationship with the boss… and everytime we can be different… too many trainings and courses are sold on this topic… and we just need to learn how to build relationships with the most important person — ourselves.
When my youngest son got sick, he said, 'Before I get married, it’s better not to get sick.' I asked him why, and he replied, 'Well, because there is no one to take care of you, when you are sick.'
