[ Three words can make your relationship strong ]

 

1.Let me helpGood friends see a need and then try to fill it. When they see a

hurt they do what they can to heal it. Without being asked, they jump in and

help out.2. I understand you.People become closer and enjoy each other more

when the other person accepts and understands them. Letting your spouse know -

in so many little ways -that you understand them, is one of the most powerful

tools for healing your relationship. And this can apply to any relationship.3.

I respect youRespect is another way of showing love. Respect demonstrates that

another person is a true equal. If you talk to your children as if they were

adults you will strengthen the bonds and become closer friends. This applies to

all interpersonal relationships.4. I miss you.Perhaps more marriages could be

saved and strengthened if couples simply and sincerely said to each other "I

miss you." This powerful affirmation tells partners they are wanted, needed,

desired and loved. Consider how important you would feel, if you received an

unexpected phone call from your spouse in the middle of your workday, just to

say "I miss you."5. Maybe you're right.This phrase is very effective in

diffusing an argument. The implication when you say "maybe you're right" is the

humility of admitting, "maybe I'm wrong". Let's face it. When you have an

argument with someone, all you normally do is solidify the other person's point

of view. They, or you, will not likely change their position and you run the

risk of seriously damaging the relationship between you. Saying "maybe you're

right" can open the door to explore the subject more. You may then have the

opportunity to express your view in

a way that is understandable to the other person.6. Please forgive meMany broken

relationships could be restored and healed if people would admit their mistakes

and ask for forgiveness. All of us are vulnerable to faults,foibles and

failures. A man should never be ashamed to own up that he has been in the

wrong, which is saying, in other words, that he is wiser today than he was

yesterday.7. I thank you.Gratitude is an exquisite form of courtesy. People who

enjoy the companionship of good, close friends are those who don't take daily

courtesies for granted. They are quick to thank their friends for their many

expressions of kindness. On the other hand, people whose circle of friends is

severely constricted often do not have the attitude of gratitude.8. Count on

meA friend

is one who walks in when others walk out. Loyalty is an essential ingredient for

true friendship. It is the emotional glue that bonds people. Those that are rich

in their relationships tend to be steady and truefriends. When troubles come, a

good friend is there indicating "you can count on me."9. I'll be thereIf you

have ever had to call a friend in the middle of the night, to take a sick child

to hospital, or when your car has broken down some miles from home, you will

know how good it feels to hear the phrase "I'll be there."Being there for

another person is the greatest gift we can give. When we are truly present for

other people, important things happen to them and us. We are renewed in love

and friendship. We are restored emotionally and spiritually. Being there is at

the very core of civility.10. Go for itWe are all unique

individuals. Don't try to get your friends to conform to your ideals. Support

them in pursuing their interests, no matter how far out they seem to you. God

has given everyone dreams, dreams that are unique to that person only. Support

and encourage your friends to follow their dreams. Tell them to "go for it."11.

I love youPerhaps the most important three words that you can say. Telling

someone that you truly love them satisfies a person's deepest emotional needs.

The need to belong, to feel appreciated and to be wanted. Your spouse,

yourchildren, your friends and you, all need to hear those three little

words:"I love you." Love is a choice. You can love even when the feeling is

gone."Gurur Brahma Gurur VishnuGurur Devoh Maheshwar;Gurur Shakshat

ParambramhaTashmai Shri Gurur Veh Namah"May the Merciful Sri Sai Baba always

shower His grace on us and our families and remove our problems and anxieties by

giving us all - strength , goodluck, success and happiness with peace of

mind.Sai bhakt,Deepa Hdebu7366
