About This Quote
The road to calmer relationships therefore isn’t necessarily about removing points of contention. It’s rather about assuming that they are going to happen and that they will inevitably require quite a lot of time and thought to address. If you can learn to accept the fact that there will be times when you and your partner must work things out, it will make life easier. After all, if you can accept the fact that there will be times when things go wrong, then you won’t get so upset when they do.
You can take comfort in the fact that if something goes wrong, you and your partner both know what to do next. The next step is to learn how to communicate effectively and calmly with one another. The more positive energy you share with one another, the easier it will be for you both to resolve your differences.
