Solving Relationship Problems - Part 11: Keeping Your Bucket Full

A relationship is like a bucket, and the joy, quality, positive energy, motivation & fulfillment that you can experience in the relationship are like the water that fills the bucket. We need to learn how to keep the bucket filled. That involves doing things that add water to the bucket. It also involves making sure you aren't doing things that make holes in the bucket. The holes can quickly drain the water out of the bucket. We have to continually perform maintenance on the bucket by detecting and repairing the holes. Relationships require work and attention, but if you can establish the right balance your relationships will grow and flourish.

Beautiful couple, great lesson. I have always felt that a relationship, any kind of relatiionship would really be hard to sustain if its not based on friendship, though some people totally disagree with me. But Just seeing how beautifully you blend gives me so much hope, joy that there is people out there whose Ideas are share. I really love the fact that you are not just couple, but also a team working on something very important and are both so passionate about. THANKS.
