RELATIONSHIPS: SEEKING HAPPINESS VS. EXPRESSING HAPPINESS The relationships you build in your life can have a huge impact on your quality of life itself, so it is important to consider why we form these relationships in the first place and why many of these are unsustainable. A ‘give and take’ mechanism is inherent in all relationships. We seek out someone to fulfil our different types of needs. This could be physical, emotional or financial, for example. As well as feeling the need to receive, we also experience the need to give. But why do we seek out others to make ourselves feel better? It all comes down to the fact that we do not feel complete on our own. We believe that establishing ourselves in a good relationship will make us feel complete, otherwise we are incomplete. We are failing to understand that we are a complete entity on our own. The word ‘soul-mate’ is incorrectly used. The soul is limitless – it doesn’t need anyone else to fulfil it. These connections are of the mind, the body and our emotions. That’s not to say that finding someone that you are emotionally and physically compatible with isn’t a wonderful thing, however the problem comes when we believe our entire happiness rests on these relationships. Relationships are built on expectations, and often impossible expectations at that - we need to understand the limitations and the pressures involved. When we are forming relationships with people based on their ability to fulfil our needs, to relieve our own inadequacies, we are in a situation which is almost impossible to sustain. What if the needs of one individual changes? What if someone else comes along who can fulfil your needs better? In a nutshell, the moment the needs we formed the relationship in order to fulfil are no longer fulfilled, the relationship will go bad. We need to be straight with ourselves, to realise that relationships can be a lovely addition, or decoration if you like, to our life journeys, but if you are willing to embrace it and know its beauty, you realise that our life process is full as it is. The key here is to realise that for a relationship to be beautiful and successful we need to think of it not as a way of pursuing happiness for ourselves but instead as a way of sharing and expressing the happiness and joy we already have. You should not be trying to extract happiness from each other. So search your soul, explore your spirituality, embrace your uniqueness and find your own happiness. Then express the innate love and joy that has blossomed within you. Accessing your inner wisdom and opening yourself up to this change is challenging at the best of times.
