Living In A Fog

Living in a Fog.

Dwelling in Darkness.

Residing in uncertainty

Content with permanent confusion.

Not knowing WHAT just happened.

No idea WHY things happen.

No clue how to prevent things from happening again.

Why did they just say that?

What did they mean  when they said that?

Why did they just storm out of the room?

Why did they suddenly burst into tears?

What did I do  to cause this reaction?

Am I partly responsible for this outcome?

Are they offended?  Why?

Have I hurt them?  What did I do wrong?

Am I in the Wrong?

Are they too sensitive?

Have I pressed their Buttons?

Are they in pain because of me?

Have I caused their discomfort?

Did they ask me to comment or make suggestion?

Or did they just want me to listen and empathise.

Are they complaining?  Trying to change a situation?

Or are they simply airing their feelings, telling me how they feel inside?

Does this get shoved under the carpet, or am I allowed to talk about this?

How will I know the answers to all these questions?

Shall I be brave and ask them?

Shall I take the risk?

What's the worst that could happen?

I might hear uncomfortable things.

Well, the atmosphere is uncomfortable enough at the moment, so let's chance it.

What's the BEST that could happen?

1. We would both be living in the Truth.

2. We would both know where each other stood.

3. We would both be living in the Light.

4. We would both be in Reality.

5. There would be no game-playing.

6. There would be Clarity in the room.

7. There is Hope of Restoration.

The salvation of our relationship is worth me taking the chance, speaking up and trying to sort this out.

What next step can I take to resolve this?

Shall I stand my ground?  Assert myself?

Or should I offer love and support, reassure them I love them and am devoted to them.

Committed to their well-being.

How are they feeling now?

Vulnerable perhaps?  Angry?  Frustrated?  Unheard?

Unappreciated?

How long will they remain in this state?

Communication is certainly crucial at this stage.

So is an open heart, and a willingness to listen.

Good human relationships are the top requirement on this planet.

Mastering myself first, then my interactions/connections with other people, is my number one priority.
