War is the breakdown of politics.
Misunderstandings cause much harm.
We are all fragile and need affection.
Arguments often happen in close relationships. In fact the more fond you are of someone then the more likely it is to happen because you might expect too much or look for signs of affection that don't seem to be there.
Once upon a time there was a young woman who gave her husband a little china ornament for Christmas. It was a man and a woman sitting on a bench with their lips touching. She told him that she wanted them to always be like that.
Whenever they had an argument she would put the figures facing away from each other until they said sorry then kissed and made up.
Over the years they got chipped and broken but they were always carefully mended and glued back together. So here they are still sharing the same bench. Still happy to be together.
Very sweet :)
