Keep it proportionate

Being on a relationship is an art, no matter what kind it is: professional, personal, social, etc. All those have something in common: contact. What we do affects others and then we suffer the consequences: we get mad, anxious, insecure, lost, etc. The main problem is how we react to the things around us and to what others do.

A relationship affects others but mostly it affects us; the difference is that most of the time we share what is happening among ourselves rather than appreciate the little things we do and recieve from others. We may tend to see others in relation to us, but when we close our vision to what we think and forget our surroundings, we get lost. Many problems start in our minds and when we don’t face reality, we suppose what is not there.

When there is trouble, we tend to overreact or try to make our point by acting in rejection. Let’s not forget that when we are mad at something we can’t take it on others much less with our love ones. We may be mad because we disagree but we can’t deny their affections or the relation just because of small things like a disagreement.

Proportion is the way we can find the right term, thing or action without exceeding it, nor lacking. It is just right. If we are angry, the best thing we can do is to maintain a proportion without discarding what we will regret.
