Relationships

Relationships
I think we all have a part of us that wants to be needed, whether we want to admit it or not. Quoted of Pablo Neruda “Love is a question” and it’s a question we must ask ourselves. What is the ideal concept of things we love and can we find them in another? Sometimes people become to self-centered to love another person and personally, to me, life without a concept of love is meaningless. To those who wish to find someone to have for a lifetime or to call our own, love is our strength. In it we find happiness and a push to go above and beyond ourselves. Love makes us want to try and be the best at something or to be ‘amazing’ because we want a bond with someone, a bond we can always turn to. I like to call that bond a relationship. A good, healthy, happy relationship is beneficial to both parties, much like friendship. Only it can go on to a more intimate level. The closer we become to someone, the more we need them. Being in the right type of relationship with the right person can lead you to a healthier you. I think this is because it makes you want to appear better-so the other is appreciative, become more intelligent-to broaden you conversation options: so you can converse with them longer, be better- so they’ll want to be around you like you want to be around them. It gives you something to always find a way to look forward to it. As well as you’ll have someone to be there for you to brighten your day if things aren’t going right. So you won’t have to fake a smile and you can smile because they’ve given you a reason to. A relationship will leave you wanting more and you will want to grow. Growth is excellent for the mind and the body, psychologically the growth will help you be more well rounded. Showing everyone should want to have someone and to eventually be in a relationship because you can help yourself and be brighter, and you can help them and give them something to look forward to. Personally, when I make someone else happy, I’m happier. That happens a lot in a relationship, so as long as they’re right and beneficial to both parties, it will have a good psychological outcome.
