RELATIONS
Contact is vital.
Contact is blocked by critic.
Critic happens when we quarrel.
Quarrels express uncompromising interests.
Uncompromising conflicts express lack of respect for differences.
Lack of respect for differences is due to lack of empathy with, and respect for, our own limitations,
which causes lack of understanding and empathy with the other person,
which causes lack of respect for differences,
which causes uncompromising conflicts,
which causes quarrels,
which causes critic,
which causes lack of contact,
which causes unbearable loneliness.
Therefore: Know thyself - with empathy and respect.
