You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.

Life is like a game of strip poker. We can't control the cards we're dealt, but we can play the ones we do get to the best of our ability.. .

That is, of course, unless 'Her Royal Spriteness' is dealing. ;)

My Grandmother, rest her soul, told me something that I have believed since.

"No matter what the relationship, the most important person in your relationship is the other person."

My father only had a sixth grade education, but in many ways, he was a wise man. One of his favorite sayings was, "Ignorance is never a sin until you start waving it like a flag."


That was the great lesson of Socrates 2500 years ago. He knew he was ignorant.
Looking for a teacher, he sent a reliable friend to Delphi to consult the Oracle to ask
"Who is the wisest person in Athens?" The response was that Socrates was wisest!
How could that be he thought for a long time? Then the answer hit him:" he is wisest because he knows and is humbled by the fact that he alone know that he did not know! All the rest, did not even know that they did not know, and in fact, put him to death for pointing it out to them when they wanted to take over and run Athens.

I think the most important relationship will ever have is with yourself.

As sweet as the above sounds, it sounds like a recipe for one to have advantage over the other one.

I agree that your relationship with yourself has to be the most important one you can have, If you are not comfortable with yourself then you can't give to someone else. I am more referring to the give and take in a relationship. If the most important person is you then you will find out that the other person will one day start feeling the same and stop loving you. I speak from personal experience.

I can see where the other person could take advantage of you if you let it get to that point, but you have to look at each situation. This is not a "power exchange" thing. I didn't say that you were to become subservient to the other person, it is meant to just tell you that you should be willing to show the other person that they are the most important thing in you life. Not that they are to control your life. If they start to abuse the idea then you have to stop for your own sake.

Thank you for your

hard to say which one of my principles is more important than another. i didn't make these up, but i have learned that they work very reliably in a wide variety of situations and relationships
- practice gratitude
- apply the golden rule
- look for the good in others and situations
- always seek to find the win-win answer in conflicts
- have some reasonable expectation of the other person applying the golden rule in a relationship with an equal
- unconditional love can be dangerous and is unwise and unrealistic between equals. but if i really love you "unconditionally," then i will leave you if you are abusive
- the right to self-defense cannot and should not be taken away. everyone is entitled to and should act in their own enlightened self-interest- (which could include giving up your seat on the titanic's lifeboat. it is one thing to willingly give up yourself sacrificially, but different if it is demanded by someone- that's usually abuse)
- accept reality, but push on the areas you can change (same as the serenity prayer)
- give the benefit of the doubt until someone makes it obvious they should not have it
- don't jump to quick conclusions... suspend judgment until you can investigate
- love has to be given freely. manipulation is antithetical to love.
- free gifts have to be given freely. don't trust people who give to incur obligation
- a relationship with an equal should have some overarching equitable equivalency to it. you might give different things to each other, but it feels like your giving as good as you get
- be honest with yourself, be aware, be present
