The Second Agreement from don Miguel Ruiz.
When my partner or friend is having a bad
day, chances are it’s not about me.
We all live very intricate lives that involve a lot of
challenges outside our relationship .
When I decide that it’s about me and get hurt,
then I do not allow my partner to be seen or
heard or even feel loved.
In order for me to be there for my partner, I have to
not take it personally.
