Building Relationships, Commitment and Love - Continuing With M
We continue our series on how to build interpersonal relationships, whether with family, coworkers, friends, or that special someone. Commitment and love are important to all of us; they are worth fighting for; they are worth working for. You also should know that in spite of many promises there is no secret for success, no checklist of things to do, and just as importantly no checklist of things not to do. But we do have suggestions, now continuing with the letter M. We actually have a double series of articles for the letter M. The focus here is on memory, mingle, and modest.
M is for memory. Maybe the easiest way to get into hot water with those special people in your life is to forget their special days such as birthdays. The situation worsens if the special day belongs to the two of you; I am talking about a wedding anniversary. Don't forget. Memory also means remembering special moments that don't fall into neat categories such as birthdays. One of the last times I saw a favorite uncle I reminded him of something that he told me on our first meeting several decades previously. Boy was he pleased to hear those words. Boy was I pleased then and now to recall this special moment. Memory is one of the greatest possessions that we have. Cherish the memories of those important to you. They will remember you for it.
M is for mingle. Don't just stand off to the side; mingle. You will never know what you have in common with that redhead across the room if you don't give it a try. I think there are bonus points for being the mingler instead of the minglee. Unless you're in China where Ming Lees abound. Don't wait; get out there and mingle. But don't mangle.
M is for modest. I happen not to care for braggarts. I find it tiring to listen to their huffing and puffing. I would rather listen to the train come into the station. Modesty can be a pleasant characteristic. Give other people credit for their part in a group effort. If you didn't do it alone, why pretend? Will you fool people? Undoubtedly. Will you fool the ones who count? Probably not. As long as you're at it dress modestly. People will still be able to see how attractive you are. Immodest dressing has become a major problem, especially among young women and girls. Free business idea and I mean this seriously. My modest proposal is to produce and sell modest, attractive clothing for young girls and women. I am sure there is a lot such clothing on the market and am also sure there's room for much, much more. This is one way to fight for modesty.
