Humanists recognize that we are all humans. Regardless of our differences. And that our common humanity matters.
Happy New Year. I don’t normally suggest resolutions for
people. I tend to think that we should be changing our behavior as needed all
year long. Regardless, I do have one suggestion for a resolution that I think it would help you to adopt.
Resolve to remember that we are all one big ginormous
family. You are genetically related to all the other humans, plans and animals
on the planet. You are created out of the same building blocks that make up our
universe.
Just like any family, there may be times when we don’t get
along. However, ultimately, we do share a home with all the other life on earth
and we would be wise to make the best of it and not tear down our house in an
attempt to control everyone else. After
all, if we tear down our house out of spite, we will be left with nowhere to
live and that would be incredibly short sited.
So, whether your current cause of angst is politics,
interpersonal relationships or ecological, always remember, we are all part of
one ginormous family and we owe it to ourselves to make an effort to get along.

Thank you for pointing out in this blog healing from the past rather than sweeping under the rug. It happens quite often that couples attempt to put old issues behind them and to move on, only to discover that the same problems reoccur. Marriage counseling makes it possible for partners to have honest discussions that might be difficult to handle at first but are crucial in the long run for emotional well-being. Being engaged in the process of overcoming these hurdles, couples are likely to reduce their stress levels, communication quality to step up, and emotional closeness to deepen. The separation of shared emotional suffering into individual forces is the only way to utilities the healing of the partnership.
