In this segment of the series, we are going to be paying attention to the solutions discussed in Part 2 in details(Love and Hiccups).
We are going to be discussing humility as a solution to relationship hiccup. As a person I must say it is easy to be humble but then it is also easy to fall out of humility and be proud. The essence of humility in our daily lives cannot be over emphasized.
As a check for humility ask yourself these few questions, how quick am I to apologize when am wrong? How quick am I to let go of things without having to use words like, "I wonder what am even doing with you" or "who do you think you are" and lots more. If you are a victim of any of these statements I must say you may not see it as pride but then that is.
I know most times these things do not hit on us on how relevant they are to us but then if you are proud, you will hardly attract people to yourself. No one is perfect but the ability to spot a wrong and fix it is what make an individual dynamic. Being proud is not a swag, not at all, maturity is found in humility.
If I hurt you and I say sorry it really does not take anything from me, it only makes me at peace with myself and also if for the sake of pride you are wrong I say am sorry, it just makes you feel inferior and you keep fighting with your conscience (though not everyone).
It's a conscious step to be proud and its a conscious step to be humble. Why not tell yourself these words today,
I will be the best I can be for myself and my partner.
I will learn to apologize and realize that it would not cost me anything, it will only restore my happiness with myself and my partner.
In the life, for humility to dwell in us we have to ask that the HolySpirit to fills us with the fruit of Meekness for life and for our partners.
C' mon you need to be happy and if you are in a relationship a happy relationship is a happy you so why then will you let the small boy called Pride steal your happiness.
In the series on love to the world, pride will be dealt deeply with, it's root and ways to cut it off.
Pride is the "DEADLIEST POISON THAT COULD KILL A RELATIONSHIP"
Surprise your partner today by saying "I AM SORRY".
Stay tuned for other series........
Drop your comments let us yarn about them.
Pride brings nothing but destruction. You want to keep up with it so that you're not seen as weak and it accumulates and eventually takes the wrong turn. Pride is bad period!!......its not an option if you must succeed in having a healthy relationship. Even the bible tells us how bad it is.
ReplyDeleteVery well said dear. It's a parasite that eats in deep and most times people don't even know they are proud! But then change is constant.
