Rift in Relations



Wilson worked in an international company; recently he had got transfer from London to Delhi. He had been shifted in a flat along with his family.

The next day of shifting, Wilson and his family members noticed that the voices of loud shouting and quarrel were coming from their neighbour’s flat.

Wilson came out in fear of any eventuality and asked the reason to his second neighbour.

Second neighbour answered vacantly- This is daily routine; don’t listen.

That morning Wilson ignored by understanding it normal family problem, but up to next two days when loud noise of quarrel came continuously in morning-evening from his neighbour’s flat, Wilson didn’t like to listen all this.

Wilson’s family environment was calm and peaceful but the fight which continued morning-evening in his neighbour could not be tolerated.

These disturbances were new for Wilson’s both son, so when third day Wilson returned back from office then his younger son asked- Father, why our neighbour’s family members quarrel with each other?

Elder son answered by showing maturity- In anger, human loses own mental peace so they shout and fight.

Younger child asked again- When they live in one house then they can talk in low tone, why they need to shout so much on each other?

On this question, Wilson called his both son and explained them- When two people get annoyed with each other so they get angry due to which distances of their hearts increase, in this condition they can’t listen without shouting on each other; Much anger they do, the distances of their hearts increase more and they have to shout louder. By doing anger they don’t understand the feelings of each other and then they start fighting; but if they don’t anger, live with love then they don’t have to shout on each other and they talk calmly because their hearts are close to each other, they understand each other’s feelings and don’t fight. When they endlessly love each other then they don’t have to speak; they understand the feelings of each other without saying a word. That’s why you should always remember that your heart should remain close to your family and friends; don’t behave or work in such a manner due to which the distances of hearts increase otherwise the time would come when distances of hearts increase this much that by shouting also others won’t listen and understand your talks and feelings.

In this way, Wilson gave worthy lesson to his both son and also gave message to live with love. After some time, Wilson with his family shifted to another calm place of the city.

Dear friends, Always refrain from such behaviour and work due to which resentment and anger arise in relations, anger creates rift in relations; more the anger increases the rift in relations would change in chasm. Thank You.
