Broken Homes

Why can't we all just get along?
The number of marriages that have gone sour in 2007 is amazing. I learnt recently that one of the easiest ways to bring people together is to give them a common goal. Yes that’s true. I am surprised, however at just how many homes are broken.

Are we fighting the same battles? Are we on the same side? Is the enemy clearly identified and defined?

I have made a list of what I believe to be some of the main causes why families do not enjoy healthy relationships:

  1. Selfishness

  2. Lack of Trust

  3. Greed

  4. Fear

  5. Poor Communication

  6. Lack of Persistence

  7. Stubbornness

  8. Lack of self control

I also realize that we all live with something which we aim to get better at, just as I must live with your faults, you should be willing to live with mine. I exercise patience when dealing with you and you when dealing with me. I know it isn’t all that simple. But for F-A-M-I-L-Y it is worth it.
