It never does end...  – Namaste Now!

never ends

Life and all relationships are eternal. They’re forever. That’s assuring and scary at the same time. Scary because some of our relationships aren’t ideal and we might dread having them forever!

learning

Unless a relationship is abusive we shouldn’t run away from it. The reason we’re in any situation is to capture valuable learning from it If we leave a relationship before learning what we must, our ‘’freedom’ will be short-lived. It’s best we try and understand why we’re experiencing what we’re going through…
