The Healing Power of Time in Relationships

 

When dark clouds gather in your relationships, your mind can become very disturbed. Under stress, it becomes extremely difficult to control your thoughts, concentrate on tasks, and maintain the rhythm of daily life. In such situations, it would be ideal to quickly find a way to relieve the tension and protect your heart. However, significant mental disturbances can make even this challenging. At times, you may have no choice but to surrender to the passage of time, waiting for it to solve the problem—not by changing the other person, but by changing yourself. Even though you might not want to rely on time passing, it can be the best remedy.

The Japanese proverb "Once through the throat, the heat of boiling liquid is gone" is paraphrased as "When pain is gone, it's soon forgotten." This implies that no matter how much hardship we experience, once it passes, we tend to forget about it easily. Therefore, even though we often reminisce about past tough experiences, the memory of these experiences tends to fade, making it difficult to recall the details unless it's an exceptionally traumatic event.
