Failed Relationships

There is no such thing as a failed relationship. What there is, is a failure to recognize when a certain type of teacher has come into our lives and the lessons these teachers have for us as well as a failure on our part to understand and honor that. The lessons can either have been learned or not learned. That doesn't matter. Whether the lessons have been learned or not, the relationship is not a failure. The relationships are exactly as they are meant to be (or not be)--parents, siblings, other family members, lovers, partners, spouses, bosses, business partners, friends---the type of relationship doesn't matter. it's all the same. So understand, that the relationship has not "failed." Rather, it is a complete and total success no matter the outcome. sage
