Enduring Relationships
Trust is the binding factor in enduring relationships. Any doubts in one’s loyalty will surface in the form of cracks in even the most dependable of relationships.
Failure to take timely action will widen these cracks beyond repair. Any genuine attempt to salvage the relationship requires goodwill on both sides, but one party has to take the initiative to clear the air.
Apology from one side, and forgiveness from the other, makes neither party smaller, wrong or right. Most often, both sides have to introspect and swallow their egos for a loving, meaningful relationship.
