Distance - way to through it well

There are some people in your life that need to be loved from a distance..

It’s amazing what you can accomplish when you let go of or at least minimize your time with draining, negative, incompatible, not going anywhere relationships.

 Life is too short for draining, negative relationships…that should put everything in perspective: LIFE BEING TOO SHORT : let’s make the most of it by doing good to ourselves and loving ourselves, and walking with the Lord, step by step….

Suddenly I feel like breaking out in this Miley cyrus song THE CLIMB…love the lyrics; she did a good job at singing it with so much feeling…there you have it…it’s the climb that matters….!!!

OK, that’s very true….sometimes you see people quarreling, bickering, so on and so forth, really not healthy…..might as well treat this on a different cause…some mind provoking statements…again… Life is too short and so precious.

Back to the subject. Love from the distance really require something from you. Something that you need to hold into it. It is called commitment. Yup, commitment and it is a really a big thing. At the beginning of the relationship, both of you already set a condition and commitment. Have you heard anyone saying this? I’ll call you, I’ll text you, I’ll email you everyday? It looks so WOW….but only a few while only. People tend to forget and will give all kind of excuses. If the first rule you cannot be fulfill, what’s the point. I’d say this rule, commitment is most important and the foundation of long distance relationship.

Apart from commitment, trust is crucial. Why? It is not easy to maintain a relationship that you are the other part of the world and the other person, only God know where it is. Trust require sincere and strong heart too. For sure, your mind will wonder what is the other person are doing? With whom? Where?…There are gazillion questions keep on pondering your mind. In other word, I called it doubt. Our mind will make all kinds of assumption and story. I bet it’ll make you so crazy and nut.

So, how’s so far?….did you pass the test already? One more test to go. How about patience? Let give you a simple test. Try not speak with your friend for 30 minutes or sit quietly in a room for 30 minutes. If you are able to go through this test, long distance relationship won’t be a problem for you. Just imaging you only meet each other once a year and sometime even longer than that.

Before I end of the story, let me summary 4 important rules in long distance relationship.

• Commitment
• Trust
• Patience
• Be Positive
