Every interaction with another human either creates a new relationship or expands an existing one.

Gossip, Rumors and Idle Chatter is like two parrots repeating everything they heard. — “Sharing time on their perches, these two Key West parrots have an ongoing dialog (communication).”

How successful you are in navigating a new or existing relationship is based on what you observed and learned earlier in life. Along the way, maybe you learned great communication and relationship skills. And maybe you didn’t.

A Lonely Flower on the shoreline of Acadia National Park in Maine. — “Without spending time unlearning destructive skills, you may find yourself alone like this flower in the rocky shoreline of Acadia National Park.”

It isn’t enough to just learn new relationship skills. No. It will be necessary to identify and unlearn destructive behaviors. Without putting in the effort to discard these destructive skills, they will return at the worst possible moment.

A Bison in a herd has a relationship with others in the herd. — “These bison in Yellowstone National Park are examples of how you can learn to work together to thrive in a sometimes-harsh environment.”

These people standing under this large tree, have some type of relationship with each other although they may not know each other. — “Relationships can be formed by experiencing a shared experience. These people are standing under the 400- to 500-year-old Angel Oak Tree on Johns Island, SC.”
