Reflecting on Building Relationships

• 
  
• My current relationships have molded me into the person that I am today. First, my relationship with Jesus Christ has taught me who I am in Him and how to love others. It has been the foundation of my very existence. My husband with my husband began 14 years ago. We have had our ups and downs but our love is steadfast. He is the love of my life and my best friend. My relationship with his has taught me what true loyalty and commitment look like. My relationship with my mother over the years has been a rocky one, but God has mended it and we get along better than ever now. My relationship with her has taught me patience and how to accept others as they are, and that everyone is dealing with something. What I see as special characteristics of these relationships that make some partnerships are preserverance, patience, commitment, honesty, respect, and acceptance.
