Loving Peaceful Vibrations
The following three-word phrases can enrich every relationship.
Read them; contemplate on them; and use them. They are very
powerful.
I'll Be There
If you have ever had to call a friend in the middle of the
night, to take a sick child to hospital, or when your car has
broken down some miles from home, you will know how good it
feels to hear the phrase " I'll be there. " Being there for
another person is the greatest gift we can give. When we're
truly present for other people, important things happen to them
& us. We are renewed in love and friendship. We are restored
emotionally and spiritually. Being there is at the very core of
civility.
I Miss You
Perhaps more marriages could be saved & strengthened if couples
simply & sincerely say to each other "I miss you." This powerful
affirmation tells partners they are wanted, needed, desired &
loved. Consider how ecstatic you would feel, if you received an
unexpected phone call from your spouse in the middle of your
workday, just to say "I miss you."
I Respect You / I Trust You
Respect and trust is another way of showing love. It conveys the
feeling that another person is a true equal. If you talk to your
children as if they were adults you will strengthen the bonds &
become close friends. This applies to all interpersonal
relationships
Maybe You're Right
This phrase is highly effective in diffusing an argument and
restoring frayed emotions. The flip side to "maybe you're right"
is the humility of admitting maybe "I'm wrong". Let's face it.
When you have a heated argument with someone, all you do is
cement the other person's point of view. They, or you, will not
change their stance and you run the risk of seriously damaging
the relationship between you. Saying "maybe you're right" can
open the door to further explore the subject, in which you may
then have the opportunity to get your view across in a more
rational manner.
Please Forgive Me
Many broken relationships could be restored and healed if people
would admit their mistakes and ask for forgiveness. All of us are
vulnerable to faults and failures. A man should never be ashamed
to own up that he has been in the wrong, which is saying, in
other words, that he is wiser today than he was yesterday.
I Thank You
Gratitude is an exquisite form of courtesy. People who enjoy the
companionship of good, close friends are those who don't take
daily courtesies for granted. They are quick to thank their
friends for their many expressions of kindness. On the other
hand, people whose circle of friends is severely constricted
often do not have the attitude of gratitude.
Count On Me
A friend is one who walks in when others walk out. Loyalty is an
essential ingredient for true friendship; it is the emotional
glue that bonds people. Those that are rich in their
relationships tend to be steady and true friends. When troubles
come, a good friend is there indicating "you can count on me."
Let Me Help
The best of friends see a need and try to fill it. When they
spot a hurt they do what they can to heal it. Without being
asked, they pitch in and help.
Go For It
We are all unique individuals. Don't try to get your friends to
conform to your ideals. Support them in pursuing their
interests, no matter how weird they seem to you. Everyone has
dreams, dreams that are unique to that person only. Support and
encourage your friends to follow their dreams. Tell them to "go
for it."
I Love You
Perhaps the most important three words that you can say. Telling
someone that you truly love them satisfies a person's deepest
emotional needs. The need to belong, to feel appreciated and to
be wanted. Your spouse, your children, your friends and you, all
need to hear those three little words "I love you."
Special Merry Christmas and LOVING PEACEFUL VIBRATIONS to you and your loved ones.
