As I looked back on old photos, I remembered so many good times with dear friends and family members. Sadly, in some cases ties have been broken. Why?
Sometimes in relationships we forget to see our connections with respect to time--the issue at hand that challenges our connections takes over and we forget about all the good times and care for one another. At times like these, we can mistakenly break the bonds that kept us close. This is not a good idea.
Instead, it's best to take a vacation from one another when times are tough. Give the fracture some time to heal. When you do that, you don't break the relationship but instead retain the good times of the past and make way for future connections.
It's natural that relationships will change over time, but it's unnecessary in most cases to break ties forever, instead give those connections time, then adjust the ways you connect to fit your new reality. That's better.
