"The people we are in relationship with are always a mirror, reflecting our own beliefs,

and simultaneously we are mirrors, reflecting their beliefs.

So... relationship is one of the most powerful tools for growth....

If we look honestly at our relationships,

we can see so much about how we have created them."
