Relationship Advice From Cary Tennis

WOW! Is it Spring or is it that myself and my peers are thinking seriously about finding our right mates... Feels like relationships is the number one topic of our conversations these days.

It's all a process of self-discovery and communication isn't it? And then it's so painful and disappointing when the rocky moments hit. Love can be both heart-rending and heart-mending. It's give and take while being true to ourselves. Sometimes we grow together, other times we grow apart. What to do then? I've known for years now that standing in the fire is so very painful and difficult but the only way to truth.

Cary Tennis agrees. Here's some up front good advice for anyone going through painful moments in relationships:

For those of us who embrace the artists' approach to life, this advice will be particulary keen.

If you're thinking of doing some writing for personal exploration (according to Cary, all writing is personal exploration) http://www.carytennis.com/workshops.html

Reading Cary's column, which sometimes I LOVE and sometimes hits me the wrong way, has been a great boon in my personal growth over the past year. Through my own meditation, writing and reading his column, I came up with my mantras that I have shared with you already:

CONFIDENCE
INTEGRITY
LOVE IN YOUR HEART
FAITH

SEPARATE THE EGO FROM THE PRACTICE

And with my mantras in mind and heart, I thank you for taking the time to read this.
