There is a game that children play called the GAME of LOVE. It comes in a form of a cube that has six quotations. They roll the dice and whatever quotation comes on top, they practice living it for the day.

Imagine a die that you would normally roll in a game but instead of numbers, it has quotations. And each morning, a child can roll it and live the quotation for the day. This is a POWERFUL tool that can be used to improve relationships.

Relationships dry because people stop caring and stop loving the other person, and basically just think of themselves. But we can learn from this GAME OF LOVE. Here are the six quotations:

1. LOVE EVERYONE. This quote makes us look outside of ourselves and becomes directed to the person in front of us. He or she may be your spouse, your teen-age son or daughter, your neighbor or office-mate. To love everyone means to think of their welfare, to be kind to them and to spread a positive feeling to everyone you meet.

2. BE THE FIRST TO LOVE This is a bit challenging. Do not wait for the other person to make the first move. But instead be the first one to initiate something good. It can be giving the other person a glass of water if he or she is thirsty.

3. SEE JESUS IN THE OTHER PERSON For Christians, Jesus represents the second person in the Triune God. But he represents a person, a person to love back. Jesus said in the Gospel Whatever you do to the least of your brothers, you do it to me Seeing Jesus in the other person will put us in a frame of mind that we cannot help but love that person, no matter how obnoxious he or she may be.

4. LOVE ONE ANOTHER this is another way of enhancing relationships by applying the principle of RECIPROCAL LOVE.

5. MAKE YOURSELF ONE WITH THE OTHER- This means to put yourself in the shoes of the other person. For example if the other person is suffering due to the death of a loved one, be compassionate or empathize with that person. On the other hand, if your friend is rejoicing because her son won a tennis championship, rejoice with her.

6. LOVE YOUR ENEMY- This is the biggest challenge because this asks of us not to be an enemy to the other. Lets not hit back but instead return a smile or a helping hand.

Our children are taught to play this game and roll it every morning. This has helped them very much. Do you want to improve your relationships? Let us learn from this.

TRY IT NOW. Live one quotation a day.

Youll be surprised how GREATLY this can change your life!
