Guest guest Posted March 13, 2005 Report Share Posted March 13, 2005 Strikes me, living in SoCalifornia in rainy times, that we see the cost of lacking a firm foundation as slick hillsides slither out from under showy homes. I think it must be the same with a human relationship as with a house that is built without a solid base. If we have a chance to choose, as I believe we all do, why not be sure that our life is built on a solid foundation? Makes sense to me that having a plan (such as that provided by Terry Gorski and sometimes remembered by me -- not often enough!) might be a good idea. Would you want your home, your life, to be resting on a firm and solid foundation? Or would you like to trust shifting soil that can wash right out from under a multi-million-dollar mansion? Did you see the elegant homes that were toppled by our rains? Oy! So, consider COMMUNICATION as a first step in getting to know anyone who will be part of your own life. Work on that for a while before venturing into mutual (get that?) CARING -- with anyone from strangers to acquaintances to companions to friends, as we acquire associations and bring people into intimate contact -- and then possibly into COMMITMENT to move to a higher plane. I see a strong parallel to building a home on sound ground. -Zer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
