and other works, uses a wonderful metaphor for relationships. If you picture yourself as a telephone pole, he says, and the other person as a telephone pole, you can see your relationship as the line strung between you. You can&#8217;t hold up both ends by yourself. <\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\nI tell you that, because I want to tell you this: There&#8217;s a lot of wonderful relationship advice to be found in spiritual writings and teachings. But if you try to use it on another person, hoping against hope that s\/he will pick up the other end of the telephone line, it won&#8217;t work. <\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\nIf you are trying to relate to someone who hits you, cheats on you, ignores you until they want sex, or otherwise uses you in any way, then you are not in a relationship with that person. This relationship advice article does not apply to the two of you. What you have is a trauma bond, and I trust you to seek professional help, if that&#8217;s what it takes, to extricate yourself. <\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\nFor those connections with others that can honestly be called relationships, I have gathered some powerful relationship advice in my years of study and practice in conscious spiritual living. <\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\nThe first thing to know is that there is unlimited love for you in this universe. You&#8217;ll receive it as soon as you&#8217;re willing to, and as soon as you quit dictating where you think it should come from and how it should be delivered. Be present to your life, and you&#8217;ll see love showing up in the most unexpected places. <\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\nThe second principle of relationship advice is that a relationship cannot be a closed system of two. If it is, it won&#8217;t be a relationship for long. There needs to be space in any relationship for other friends, family, as well as room for Spirit to work in you and your loved one. Your primary relationship must be with your own concept of Spirit. All other relationships will fall into place. <\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\nThe last thing I want to offer you will improve your communication skills. It&#8217;s a copy of the Peace Prayer of St. Francis. No one really knows who wrote it, but this centuries old poem is packed with relationship advice. <\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\nMake me an instrument of Thy peace.<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nWhere there is hatred, let me sow love;<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nWhere there is injury, pardon;<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nWhere there is discord, harmony;<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nWhere there is doubt, faith;<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nWhere there is despair, hope;<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nWhere there is darkness, light;<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nWhere there is sadness, joy.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\nO Divine! <br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nGrant that I may not so much seek to be consoled, as to console;<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nTo be understood, as to understand;<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nTo be loved, as to love.<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nFor it is in giving that we receive;<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nIt is in pardoning that we are pardoned;<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nAnd it is in dying that we are born into eternal life. <\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\nPractice the principles of this prayer in all of your relationships, and you&#8217;ll find that your life full of the kind of relationships you really want. <\/p>\n<p><b>This article is free for republishing<\/b><\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/td>\n<\/div>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"article_bio\">Amy Biddle has been a lifetime student and teacher of spiritual principles.
