Creating Enlightened Relationships

When we near the end of life’s journey, how will we perceive our most important relationships? Parents, siblings, children, partner, spouse and others who are, or have been, important in our life? Were we kind, thoughtful, loving and supportive? Were we able to forgive those who harmed us or did we allow anger, fear or resentment to color our relationships?

From the vantage point of reflection, perhaps we can better understand the meaning and purpose of life. As ego begins to fall away and the essence of who we truly are shines through, perhaps we will more fully understand the meaning of love and acceptance. Perhaps we will see life as one big lesson in learning how to love ourselves and others unconditionally.

What do you wish you had said, or how might you have acted differently during your lifetime if loving unconditionally is the prime reason for this journey on earth? Whatever your answer, and on this Valentine’s Day, might it be worth taking those actions right now?
