Always Keep the Door Open

OK friends,

I've been living with Kathy's words from two weeks ago Wednesday and can't believe how applicable they are to most relationships. She was speaking about a difficult relationship and acting in order to create the hope of a loving relationship in the future.

In other words...what do we do in the meantime when a relationship isn't healthy or mutually loving.

"Always keep the door open...but have no expectations of outcome."

Keep the door open through our actions (writing notes, calling every once in a while, praying that they be blessed, inviting over when appropriate) but don't expect our own desired relationship...just make room for the other person to respond.

Unselfish? yes. Loving? yes. Hard? oh my goodness! but extremely helpful!

Thank you Kathy!
