what if there were no relationships???

The only true richness, in my humble opinion lies in our relationships. To live life not 'bound' by relationships would seem very depressing and meaningless. We need something by which to define ourselves and our lives. Work and buying endless toys just doesn't seem to 'cut it' as far as I can see.

I think relationships is the spice of the life. With out that there will not be any charm. Love, happiness, sorrow every thing is part and parcel of life.

The world would not be any different from a silent grave yard-the day I will be told relationship have been abolished on earth, I will pray to my God to take me home!

Dear friend, At present till the life we had we know what relationships are and we have tasted the relation. Hence if there were no relationships I hope we could be not behaved as we are now it is obvious and other part is that the survival fitness may come out. Those who are strong may survive the value of life and is nothing and hence people may kill other for their own achievement and satisfaction. May be selfishness arises more strongly. No body will be here and many inventions and discoveries too may not happen and each individual will survive according to his capabilities or may as a prey for the strongest.

I think there will still be life, as there are people with no friends and no love, and they still go on living! People in nursing homes and senior apartments who do not get visitors, family or friends, still have some kind of life! Love can make it all better, but I know for me as well as others, even if nobody loves us, we will find a pet or a garden, anything that takes time and dedication can replace relationships with people! I am not saying that it is ideal, but think of all the people with too many problems, like addiction or mental illness, time still goes by and life continues!

That would be very sad indeed. My life is made better by my relationships. My hubby is my touch stone. He evens me out. I cannot imagine my life without his calmness and perspective. I am blessed to have my child. Without a relationship with her life would be at a stand still. I become a better person daily for having her in my life. How lonely life would be without my relationships.
