Cherish your relationships and invest in them from "summary" of Life Is a Verb by Patti Digh
In our busy lives, it can be easy to take our relationships for granted. We may assume that they will always be there, that they will withstand neglect and indifference. But the truth is, relationships require care and attention to flourish. They need to be nurtured, tended to like a delicate flower in a garden. When we cherish our relationships, we are acknowledging their value and importance in our lives. We are expressing gratitude for the love and support they bring us, the joy and laughter they share with us. We are making a conscious choice to prioritize these connections, to invest our time and energy in building and strengthening them. Investing in our relationships means showing up, being present, and being intentional in our interactions. It means listening with an open heart, speaking with honesty and kindness, and being willing to work through challenges and conflicts together. It means celebrating the good times and offering a shoulder to lean on in the tough times. When we invest in our relationships, we are sowing seeds of trust, respect, and understanding. We are creating a foundation of love and connection that can weather any storm. We are building a support system that will stand the test of time, that will sustain us through the highs and lows of life. So let us not take our relationships for granted. Let us cherish them, nurture them, and invest in them with all our heart. For in the end, it is our connections with others that bring richness and meaning to our lives. It is through our relationships that we find belonging, purpose, and a sense of belonging in this world.
