Family relationships

  There are two people at a table. One is just talking the other's ear off about different things in their lives. Meanwhile, the other person is just sitting there just letting them. Then for some reason, the first seems to freak out. Then the other responses angrily back, trying to defend themselves, and it just exploded out until neither one is happy with the other. What do you think happened? Why are they now angry at each other? Why did communication break down? Well, there are many reasons that it ended the way it did. One could have been the first person asked the other a question and just got an Ok sure answer from them, or they rolled their eyes out of boredom. For whatever reason, the second one communicated something and the first felt angered by it. When the second was confronted, the second person decided to defend themselves, and it escalated from there. We are people that love communication, and we always will, but if we aren't careful with our communication it ...

  Life is like a river ride. Sometimes it passes us by quickly, other times it passes peacefully and can let us enjoy the good in life, but other times it hits the rapids and can pull us under. The world as a whole has gone through a tough rapid that has pulled many of us under and still has a grasp on others. As people work their way to get out of this riptide, new ways of thinking need to be prepared to deal with all the things that come with finding a way onto the next section of the river. This rapid was a pandemic. It hit hard and fast. In years to come, people will look back at the pandemic and wonder how we made it through or wonder why it happened. We are dealing with the backlash of it now and all the pain and confusion it brings. Things have changed; we now can work from home and online schooling has expanded and many other social structures have changed. During times of change, it is normal for stress to come, and it is a natural response to change. Overcoming stress is ...

  Relationships are a complicated subject and seem to change for each couple. So when someone asks about what is a healthy relationship, you will get many answers to that question. Some base it on how successful the couple is, others say it is how much fun they have together, and lastly, is how intimate they are with each other. I feel that each of these things should be judged divinely at different stages of a relationship. This means that both members should have a say in what's best for their lives. People see the photos and the vacations, and how fancy a gift may be for your significant other, but is that a true way to look at what success is for a relationship? In my opinion, successful relationships are ones where you can see how much they want the other to grow and reach the goals they set. A couple that is working together to reach for their dreams is always happier than one that is just having fun with each other. This is because once the hard times come, they will come. T...

  Marriage and kids are usually closely tidied by others. They both have effects on how people act and treat one another. These things redefine our lives. They can teach us many lessons and put strains on the bounds we had made before marriage or family. As strain is put upon people, it causes them to change how they feel about things. Sometimes they become angry or try to separate themselves from the problems. Each person acts definitely on how stress affects them. In this blog, I'm going to talk about simple things that cause stress in a relationship that more people need to note and talk about with their spouses as they try to work together. The first thing that I have seen that causes stress among couples through marriage is communication. When people don't plan together, they wonder why the other person is doing something they weren't expecting for the family and may get upset about it. Secondly, I have noticed that family traditions can cause anger and disagreement am...
