wisdom

today I came across two quotes that I think are very true and wonderful:

“Some of the biggest challenges in relationships come from the fact that most people enter a relationship in order to get something: they’re trying to find someone who’s going to make them feel good. In reality, the only way a relationship will last is if you see your relationship as a place that you go to give, and not a place that you go to take.”
Anthony Robbins


“Shared joy is a double joy; shared sorrow is half a sorrow.”
Swedish Proverb
