An interesting  quote on relationships  I read this morning…

The relationship between commitment and doubt is by no means an antagonistic one. Commitment is healthiest when it’s not without doubt but in spite of doubt.

Rollo May

As I reflected on the above words  a few thoughts came to me…

On life and relationships

Is there an interplay of doubt and commitment?

Is there commitment when in doubt?

What happens when doubt creeps in the committed?

Whenever they intersect there are conflicts

Whether at opposition or not

Both are in thoughts

Dashing from one extreme to another

At times contradicting at times rationalising

And returning back to apparent normalcy

When doubt dances in, commitment feels the burn

When commitment is strong, doubt rests on the back burner.

Have always felt there needs to be trust in a relationship as much as compromise else even the strongest of relationships fall apart.
