 Artist: Banksy Acknowledging the fact that mortality isn't an illusion, how fair is it to form/continue a companionship in which you recognise you are unable to fill the necessary requirements? Especially, considering that the nature of your relationship/presence in their life will contribute significantly to the individual's quality of life. Why are you there?
For example, you cannot claim to have a close bond with someone and proceed to:
By displaying these confounding characters, you are evidently taking the individual's soul, existence/presence for granted - where you are meant to be doing the total opposite. Consequently, you are not fulfilling the companionship they deserve in this lifetime. Yes, it is important not to be dependent on anyone for love, happiness, or to 'trust no one' and to seek these firstly from within ourselves (yea, yea, yea, we know). But why have a close bond where there is no trust, love, happiness?...etc. Why are you there? Therefore, it is important to realise that if the nature of your relationship is clearly meant to result in these aspects and you recognise that you are incapable of meeting the requirements, then it is only fair that you find the best methods to either work on it or severance the bond. We cannot continue to normalise this idea that the closest people to us could be our worst enemies; because it seems to promote the notion that we cannot be fair to one another - which makes it easy to be a 'pretender'. It also creates an instant barrier in our companionship preventing us from being vulnerable and stealing away the power we have to genuinely love another. Whereas, we really should be taking each of our fragile existences seriously by showing genuine love, protecting/supporting each other mentally/physically - all to contribute to a life of fulfilment while on earth.

Really great post Funke! I like the part about not normalising the fact that the closest people to you could be your worst enemies. Definitely a big thing in society now where you see people’s secrets aired out in the media and you wonder where the information came from, but only someone close to them would know that secret.
