Human beings are imperfect and fallible. We all make mistakes. The devil and the divine are in us all. As much as we try to manifest our best, at times that devil can raise its head and get the better of us and our relationships. Relationships are important. Human being are social creatures and healthy relationships are important for our well-being.

But despite best intentions, relationships can turn sour. Maybe not enough time was spent investing the necessary time and effort into the relationship. Perhaps the temptation to be busy and acquire money and power pulled you away from the important things in life. Perhaps you gave into temptations of the flesh. Or it maybe that you simply drifted apart. That’s just life and it happens.

If you are in the midst of this, your health can certainly suffer. If the damage is not irreparable, then there are ways to heal the bond. But it takes two motivated individuals to say, “we want this to work”. There is no such thing as a perfect relationship no matter how things look from the outside. But when working on a rocky relationship it’s important to go back to the simplest fundamentals: friendship, fun, care, love, respect. The rebuild starts from there.

In my work as a doctor I have seen couples go through tough times and come through stronger and happier. It is possible, but it takes willingness to work on both oneself as well as the relationship. 

Never take for granted what is good in your life.
