When You DON'T Know What You've Got TILL IT'S GONE

When You DON'T Know What You've Got TILL IT'S GONE

When You DON'T Know What You've Got TILL IT'S GONE.  To hear these words is both hard and painful to me.  NOT because I am part of it.  WHEN I overhear it even from strangers, I feel the angst.  I feel NOT just the pain but the excruciating pain.  In those instance when I overheard this statement, either someone LOST his job or someone LOST a loved one or the spouse/partner recently walked off the door and literally abandoned his/her spouse/partner📌📌📌
And what's the common culprit of unfathomable family problems?  Now, for the givens.  Family conflict is just normal.  What matters is the REPAIR.  So, what's on our plate now?  It is HOW to navigate the inevitable tension and disconnection in family relationships.  Truth is, relationships shrink to the size of the field of of repair.  But in a bid of repair, it is one of the sweetest and most vulnerable and important kinds of communication that we humans can offer to each other.  In the shortest words, it means YOU VALUE THE RELATIONSHIP💊💊💊
So, where's our positive spin here?  It is all about strengthening the family fabric and studies showed that parents and children who play together, negotiate, take turns and having fun, in other words, respecting and enjoying one another.  And when missteps happened, parents REPAIRED and RESTORED the intimacy by expressing warmth and affection, talking about what happened and even apologizing.  With a positive family relationship, the FOUNDATION of TRUST is established📌📌📌
For that singular reason alone, it pays that we should reinforce our focus in strengthening our FAMILY FABRIC because when 'MINOR RUPTURES' may happen in the future, to REPAIR and to RESTORE the relationship will be much easier.  So, where do we start?  Let us begin with simply building up that INVESTMENT of positive interaction.  Let us spend 'SPECIAL TIME' to create more space✅✅✅
Icing on the cake, appreciate LOUDLY and share gratitude reflections and be incisive of the GOOD and POSITIVE that are happening around.  Appreciate it.  In this context of connection and understanding, we can then create a family culture where rifts are expected and repairs are welcomed.  Ooooops, do watch out for tiny  BIDS OF REPAIRS because sometimes, we have so much in our minds that we miss to appreciate.  We want to avoid WHEN YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'VE GOT TILL IT'S GONE❗❗❗
