Relationships are worth investing effort
Created: 2023-08-16 13:14
The more relationships (particularly the most meaningful ones) we have, the more emotional burdens we carry. Someone running from these relationships to lighten their own burdens can feel like they are improving their emotional health, but this is a fool’s errand. If you offload the messy relationships and burdens that come with emotional commitments, you will later find you have eliminated most of your joy, loving connections, and the meaning that is found only in selfless care for another. John Lovell, The Warrior Poet Way
