Why Fighting is Normal in a Relationship

     Relationships are never easy.  Yes, there are many pros to relationships; love, laughs, fun times, etc.  There are also cons, such as fighting, disagreements, and stress.  Some people, especially younger men and women, who get into relationships think they are going to be all sunshine and rainbows.  When things do not end up going the way they anticipated, the relationship often ends.  They believe that just because fighting broke out and that they fight a lot, or so it seems, that the relationship was never meant to be.  Yes, there can be instances where two people should not be in a relationship because they fight too much or are not compatible.  However, most of the time people give up on relationships too quickly.  Just because a couple fights from time to time, it does not always mean the relationship is not worth saving.  In fact, it usually means that the relationship is normal.
     If couples did not fight, there would be no compromise, change, or greater understanding of partners.  Couples fight because they are not the same people and have different thoughts, opinions, and personalities.  Yes, a couple usually has a lot in common but it does not mean they will agree on everything.  It is only a matter of time before a couple has a disagreement that leads to an argument.  This can happen rarely or quite often depending on the couple.  Either way, it does not mean the relationship is unhealthy.  When couples disagree and argue, they showing their partners their true selves by being truthful in our words, thoughts, and opinions.  If we keep those emotions inside, the relationship may seem alright on the outside to your significant other, but on the inside, you would be miserable.  Arguing is how we release our emotions and show our partner that the relationship needs to change in some way.  When we do this, we have the opportunity to create compromise so that both parties are happy.
     Never give up on a relationship because of fighting.  Fighting is a sign that the relationship is healthy, happy, and normal.  When we fight, we compromise, and we learn more about ourselves and our significant others.  We can then move on stronger than we were before, keeping this newly acquired information in mind to maintain happiness between both parties.  Without fighting or disagreements, there would be a lot of pent up anger and resentment within, and that could lead to a premature end when there did not need to be.  Remember to always think of the good times and why relationships are always worth the effort in the long run.  Yes, fighting occurs, but the amount of memories you make and the love you share is the reward for the hard work.

Finding Your Creativity - 5 Methods

     Creativity is an invaluable resource and the backbone to human progression.   Every advancement made throughout human history was the result of someone’s creative and intellectual mind.   Planes, trains, and automobiles are great examples.   However, creativity is not used solely for the progression of mankind.   Creativity can also be used in an individual’s everyday life to make life easier and more enjoyable.   People use their creativity to solve problems, make their daily routine more efficient and less time consuming, as well as for entertainment purposes.   If you have ever made up a story in your head while bored you know what I am talking about, or if you played with action figures, inanimate objects, or roleplaying games.      As kids, we seem to have a limitless supply of creativity.   Much of that has to do with our curiosity, innocence, and lack of responsibility.   However, some ‘grow up’ a...

Five Important Life Lessons to Live By

     Today, I thought I would do something a little different.  Instead of discussing one topic, I thought I would share some life lessons based on my experience.  These nuggets of wisdom have helped me progress through life with an open, confident, and positive attitude.  I hope you benefit from them as much as I have.  Here are five important lessons to live by. 1. Speak up for Yourself      Far too many live in silence due to the fear of conflicting ideologies.  Because of this, they end up putting themselves second to other people, agreeing with them, and/or allowing themselves to be pushed around.  People can and will take advantage, and it is saddening to know there are people who allow this to happen.  Everyone deserves to be heard.  Do not be afraid to defend yourself or your opinions when need be just because it conflicts with another person.  They are not better than you nor are their beliefs.  ...

Three Effective Ways to Maintain Self Control When Provoked or Agitated

     Despite what people might think in the moment, getting angry at someone you dislike, being violent, or showing hostility does more harm than good.  We've all been there, a situation where we become so angry or annoyed that we just want to lash out.  Subconsciously we think, "this is the right thing to do," and our anger takes over.  I want you to remember a time this has happened and how it panned out.  I am sure there are instances where it is justifiable to lash out, but more often than not people regret their actions almost immediately.  We are left feeling foolish and our reputation takes a hit, the severity being dependent on the situation and the size of the blowup.  Due to the consequences, people tell themselves they will be more aware and prevent similar occurrences from happening again.  Unfortunately, not everybody learns from their mistakes.  We forget our past actions far too quickly and often repeat mistakes....
