5、art with our final topic for the course,which is self-esteem.So let me just recap what we did when we discussed relationships.So we talked about how do we - given our natures,how do we attain,how do we sustain lasting love,lasting passion when it seems on the physiological level at leastthat our nat
6、ures are not attuned to that approach.And we talked about - when studying the best relationships,the tip of the stem - four characteristics,based on the work of David Schnarch and John Gottman.The first one is: relationship is the hard work.Its an illusion to think thatthe most important thing is fi
7、nding the right relationship;it is more important to cultivate that one chosen relationship.And just like we would not thrive,succeed at work,if we said,Well,I just found my dream job,and then put our legs up and relax;similarly we would not thrive in a relationship,if we have the finding mindset -w
8、e just need to find it and we will live happily ever after,as we talked about movies and where love begins.The second component of a healthy,lasting and passionate relationship related to the first oneis the notion of being known rather than being validated,expressing rather than impressing,being op

10、hats the second component.The third component of a healthy relationship is thatthere are conflicts there.It is an illusion to believe thatthe ideal relationship is one that is conflict freethat doesnt exist,unless both partners are suppressing serious issues.So there are conflicts in relationships.T
11、he challenge is to have more positivity than negativityof course in a relationship,but also to learn how to be in the midst of disagreement,how to have conflict.And finally,the fourth point that we talked about was positive perception;being a benefit finder,and more than that,being a benefit creator
12、.I want to just go back quicklyand elaborate on something that I didnt last timeabout the conflict or conflicts within a relationship.I think the most important essay,article that I read about relationships in generalwas the article on friendship by Ralph Waldo Emerson,published in a84a.And What Eme

15、partner would you like? A yes man or woman?Or a person who would be honest,would have high levels of integrity?What is the ideal friend? What is the ideal partner?You know its interestingthis whole idea of beautiful enemy goes way backit goes back to the most influential textin certainly the Western world,which is the Bible.In Genesis,God sees that man is alone.So he creates a help meet for him,a woman.A helpmeet.What does that phrase mean?
