Do you agree with this about relationships?

Just as holding a flower too tightly crushes it, by keeping a loose, easy grip on our relationships, we groove on their beauty.

I just saw this in the morning paper and wanted to share a thought for the day. ;-)

Do you agree with this about relationships?
Agree whole heartedly. Everyone needs to keep their own individuality and you cannot do so when being smothered.
Reply:Yes, Always!

Keeping tight reigns on a Loved one isn't the Answer, Trust and Communication is.

However, for me, ONCE the Trust is gone (by a Physical Act or otherwise- Verbal) I'M THROUGH and there is No turning back!

Reply:There is a need for individualism in a relationship to make it unique and that involves trust in each other. Knowing that each of you is the most important to the other.

P. S.

BTW She speaks a Aspish dialect of snake so .... don't stand too close to her when talking.

Relationships are not important, people are.
