“The fact that you're having disagreements with each other isn't a problem -that just shows that there are some areas of your relationship that need to be worked on. And that's normal. People are different, so of course you're going to run into times where your differences come out and rub each other the wrong way. But what's important is that you both commit to work on those differences until both of you are satisfied. When you do that, you're walking the right road together and over the long-run you'll do just fine.” PeopleWayNeedsLongImportantDifferentFactsShowsProblemRunningTogetherCoursesDifferencesFineWalkingNormalAreasSatisfiedCommitPreparationOur RelationshipLong RunsDisagreementWhat's ImportantWrong WayRight Road Author:Cindy Wright
“When we resent someone in some way we need to "be on the alert" that even innocent gestures on their part can become suspect to us. Even something as simple as their walking into a room or whispering something to someone else can be conjured up in our minds, to look to us as if they're doing it on purpose to irritate us -as if they're involved in some diabolical plot to hurt us further. What they may be doing may have no connection to their past actions that hurt us in the first place but our resentful feelings against them can often taint our perception of what's really taking place.” IfsWayNeedsMindFirstsLooksMayFeelingsActionPastPurposeHurtSimpleRoomsInvolvedWalkingPerceptionConnectionsInnocentPlotSuspectsBitternessGesturesResentWhisperingResentfulDiabolical Author:Cindy Wright
“Sometimes people hurt us unintentionally. We may view that they've hurt us intentionally and want revenge. But sometimes when we really look back again, we can see that they weren't intentional in trying to hurt us. That's when we need to confess our judgment of them and forgive them for their unintentional hurts committed against us.” PeopleWantNeedsTryingLooksMaySometimesHurtViewsJudgmentForgivingCommittedRevengeBitternessBack Again Author:Cindy Wright
