Disheartened
by the discord I see all over the world among past friends I’ve devised this fool-proof
recipe for ruining a relationship:
Blame him or
her or them for the problem
Tell him or
her or them they need to work on themselves, to change, grow up, be less
selfish, whatever
Absolve yourself
of any responsibility
Sit back and
continue to criticize him or her or them
Never
examine your own thoughts, motives, and actions
Watch the
relationship with your spouse, parent, sibling, friend, neighbor, or co-worker
completely unravel
Console yourself
thinking it was all his or her or their fault, not yours
And for a
recipe to save a relationship and bring harmony in the world:
Do the
opposite!
