At Chai Latte Diaries I’m asked about the heartbreak of broken friendship.

I can also tell you that if you wish to be a healthy adult who does build and keep fulfilling relationships, then live your life by a rule of responsibility – in every break-down of either friendship or romance, we are always responsible in the percentage of somewhere between 1% and 99%. Always, revisit your own actions, find your lessons learnt, and be responsible.

Even when the others do not do this, you need to hold yourself to this accountability. It’s what good behaviour looks like, and God only knows we are always and everyday surrounded by enough bad behaviour, that it warrants the effort to rise above. Always. Always. Always.
