Friendship is the New Coping Skill
Aug 10, 2019"Our whole lives are relationships. Love accordingly.”
- Danielle LaPorte
FACT: Our relationships with others are a direct mirror of our relationships with ourselves and mimic our spiritual connection.
Why do we need relationships?
Belly laughs, inside jokes only the two of you understand, the look that needs no words, the ability to pick up the phone and call without hesitation, not having to explain the backstory. ALL of this takes “another”. Our ability to share a moment is impossible without a pal.
Friendship - the trendy coping measure….
How do you nurture your anguish... relationships. The healing is in how your friend changes the subject when you are on the hot seat, how she laughs with you and sees the humor in the situation when you need to be rescued from your pain, how she shows up unannounced with exactly what you need, how she remembers your favorite drink and has one waiting for you when you walk in the restaurant, how she reminds you where you kicked ass and points out your successes when you feel like a colossal failure. Friends heal our wounds. They buoy our pain. They see and demand our highest potential. They demonstrate grace.
Our whole lives are about connection.
Spiritual connection is connection to your soul. This type of connection reveals to us how we are not separate, but that we are all one.
Spiritual connection can not evolve in isolation.
Spiritual connection is the playground in which we get to practice love, kindness, self-control, discipline and collaboration. In relationship we have the opportunity to embrace humanity and do what is best for ALL (you, the other and the situation) vs. what is just in your favor. Spiritual relationship is a gift of growth and healing.
Choose love. Always.
If you have a choice, choose connection.
Choose time in the backyard lingering with you neighbor over doing the dishes. Attend the birthday party instead of getting ahead at work. Stay up late talking under the stars. Choose any activity that gives you the opportunity to practice Spiritual Connection, aka FRIENDSHIP.
Put yourself in a position where you give it all away. And in your giving, you will receive all you need.
