Researching relationships

RESEARCHING RELATIONSHIPS.

Who is it gets close in your personal life?

A neighbour, a sibling, your husband or wife?

Who’s your companion and who is your friend?

Who will stick by you right up to the end?

Who do you confide in? With whom do you share ?

When others are missing, who is still there?

Who welcomes your cuddles or even a kiss?

Where all of your touching will not come amiss.

When things get so rough that some people might hide.

Who is the one who will stay by your side?

Who will be loyal, and loving, and true?

Who can be trusted, other than you?

Who is most likely to do you no wrong?

Who still pays attention when others have gone?

Who gives affection, is loving and kind?

Who shares your walking and helps you unwind?

Now rank all these things that you think you will get.

From a neighbour, a sibling, your spouse, or a PET.

Bill!  Love this write!  This is an excellent think and research piece.  Great questions that we ask ourselves in a crisis or emotional need.  Well done!

Best wishes Bill
