Living a Life with Good Relationships (Part 3)

Loving everyone for their specialties is the best way to create beautiful relationships. It’s good to see one 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹𝘁𝘆 in everyone you come across and interact with each day. Suppose your parent has the virtue of 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐚𝐭 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐭 𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐞 at peace amongst little issues at home, that is the virtue of tolerance. Learn from him or her and become like that. This is the art of imbibing or picking up 𝘃𝗶𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗲𝘀. It is not only seeing others’ qualities which is also a sign of love, but making that quality yours. Also, suppose your brother or sister is good at dealing with people, make that quality yours and become like them. This is not bowing down in front of the other person. But, on the other hand, it is remaining in 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳-𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁 and giving 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲 to the VIRTUES in the other person.

➤ The other person will do the same in return. This is called true love and it is what brings people together in a beautiful bond of togetherness. It’s not about copying people but making people feel valuable by making their qualities yours. It is commonly said in spiritual wisdom – give blessings and take blessings. But another and similar act is - give qualities and take qualities. It binds people together and it creates an energy of trust wherever there are groups of people, whether in the family or at the workplace or in friend circles.

➤ Also, whenever you meet someone, it is important to greet people with a 𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐦 𝐬𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐛𝐞𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐮𝐥 𝐠𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐬. By doing this, people experience 𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 not only from our words but also through our actions. Your beautiful smile can make another person’s day. Also, remembering each one’s 𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬 (𝐯𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐮𝐞𝐬) and telling them to others is a beautiful way of 𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁 from others. So make it a point to praise everyone with a deep heart and with a 𝙥𝙪𝙧𝙚 𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 and not just artificially. You will see how people will respond by offering you their co-operation and help at every step.
