RELATIONSHIPS, SMASH OR PASS? 🤔
I'd love to say that i can guess accurately what came to your mind when you saw that topic and I'm quite sure your mind had probably set up a context to it, but let's leave my guesses and your context in suspense.😄
It is somewhat well known that life itself thrives on relationships of different kinds and forms. Like the plants depending on atmospheric gases from air, nutrients and water from the ground, animals on grasses and their kinds, and humans on a list of things for survival. There co-exists an unavoidable connection between a thing and the other, some kind of dependence, aid, competition, mutual strings are needed for life to be life.
Why sometimes, people say that relationships are best kept at optimum without expecting anything in return, other times, people argue that a relationship should not exist if there is no value of it to them. On a different note, people tend to keep different relationships with different people for different purposes. You're probably friends with her because you go to the same church together, she is friends with you because you're smart, he is friends with you because you're the life of the party or he is friends with you because of your connections and circle of friends. Whatever the case may be there always seems to exist a relationship between you and someone, does this then make them pseudo-friends or the relationships in-genuine ?
I feel you'd probably say that sometimes, you are friends with someone just because you like them naturally or just because you wish, even though i would say these cases are however rare, say that childhood friend you grew up with or your high school clique. Does this then mean that if i have a relationship with someone without a weighty purpose then the ship is genuine and the former, insincere?
However there is a category of people who believe they are not a party to friendships in their life courses and so they would rather be loners and be attributed to everything they do to their own name rather than get attached to a person for a purpose. I personally feel the whole reason we have certain friends in our lives is because they add certain values to us, good or bad and it does not define the sincerity of such friendships.
what are your thoughts on this?
Compliments of the season!🎄🎅
Thank you for reading💗
Very interesting read. I do believe everyone needs someone though. We were created wholly but we're still half of the vehicle that'll convey us through the journey called life, and make it worthwhile. I also do not think anyone should be alone; I think loners are possibly victims of bad or no experiences. Everybody needs somebody.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you that relationships come in various forms and serve different purposes. The value of a relationship can vary from emotional support to shared interests or common goals. While some connections may have clear objectives, I believe genuine friendships can also exist without a specific purpose, rooted in mutual liking or shared history. Ultimately, the sincerity of a relationship is subjective and depends on the individuals involved. It's the diversity of relationships that adds depth to our lives, whether purpose-driven or naturally formed.
