What if relationships aren’t about finding happiness at all? What if they’re about finding wholeness?
What if the way that they complete us is totally different than we tend to think about it? The truth is, in intimate relationships, they reveal where we aren’t complete within ourselves.
They’re like mirrors. Mirrors that show us the broken parts of ourselves.
Mirrors that show us the parts of ourselves that are keeping us from our full potential. From working on myself and with others, this is what I know is true: we’re only truly happy when we live out our organic character strengths and values with intention.
And in intimate relationship, when two people are growing together, when they are willing to reveal those broken parts and not hide them, that’s when the real healing can start. Relationships aren’t responsible for making us happy.
They’re responsive to how happy or unhappy we are within ourselves. They’re portals to our own personal potential, to love and be loved.

Provision: food, shelter, resource, teaching, wisdom
Presence: listening actively, undistracted, leaning in & forward
Partnership: noting is too small, everything is my job
