True appreciation comes from seeing and acknowledging the inner being rather than the outer personality of the one we want to appreciate. We can easily become fixed on a person's seemingly harmful or unconscious actions and respond by shutting our heart. Yet, if we look a little deeper, behind the actions, we will see another child of God just like ourselves reflected in the light of our partner's eyes. We will see a beautiful soul sharing with us the same journey to the light. As we seek to uncover the divinity within ourselves and others, the quality of our relationships will rise to limitless heights.
Daily appreciation can work miracles for a relationship in trouble.
Taking time to be positive with your partner can change a destructive energy pattern into a constructive one. Of all the aspects of relationship, sexuality is perhaps the one that most needs appreciation. My other lovers never had this problem. Comments such as these, even when not said in the presence of a partner, can be extremely harmful. Sexuality is an especially sensitive area of relationship.
