Relationship Revelations

It’s been a while since my last post. Fingers were eager to write but mind was stagnant. During the last month, I had a few revelations about myself and people around me after witnessing a few occurrences that happened to me and surrounding people. Made me realise that when I thought I know or had understood all about human relationships – if I actually probed further, there are still much to be learned and explore.

Since then, I had realised (not that I never knew before, but in much deeper context now) that :

- Human relations especially between men and women (romantically) are pretty complicated and utterly unpredictable. There will always be differences in ‘wants’ and ‘needs’. Both in this case will be united only for a major reason – LOVE, and ironically, the same word is also involved if both choose to separate, but this time it’s OUT-OF-LOVE.

- Human relations between parent(s) and children are undeniably strong and attached – emotionally, physically, mentally and perhaps spiritually. Whether or not, the relationship is on good terms is another matter, the attachment and bond will still affect and influence the child till old.

- Human relations between friends on platonic basis (in this case, friends of same gender) are fickle. Close friendships can be formed just about anywhere, anytime, anyhow – when common interests and values are shared. We will click and perhaps start to form a clique. But however strong the foundation of a friendship may be, it still remain forever fragile, and would disintegrate in a blink of an eye – with usually 2 reasons as the common culprit - JEALOUSY (of any aspect, usually money and status) and the involvement of a third party – a BOYFRIEND/GIRLFRIEND had emerged – Eros blinds everything.

Nevertheless, any healthy (emotionally, mentally, spiritually) person would still need all these different shades of relationships mentioned above. It is suppose to make us whole and complete as a human being. It would feel as though we had missed a thing or two in life if we had never experience it before.

That’s us – HUMANS, forever fickle.
