Breaking Point

Everybody has a breaking point, elasticity limit, the straw that broke the camels back, the point of no return, and boiling point.

Nature dictates this. All of living and non-living things have their own breaking points. For example, no matter how strong a bamboo tree is against strong winds, it will break once it bends to far. A camel, which can carry loads of things on its back wil eventually give up due to exhaustion.

This is also true with human beings.

As I have always said, there are bridges that are beyond repair. Some people can only take so much in a lifetime.

When somebody warns you to lay off their back, leave them alone, or not to intervene in their affairs, take it as gospel. A person, who time and again tells you to stop pushing the buttons means serious business.

Sure, that person will let it pass for a while but not forever. Once that person has reached her breaking point, not even a word war can change her mind.

Whatever strategy you employ to gain back her affection, her trust and love, once that person reaches her limit and loses her patience all efforts will be in vain. Why? How could you revive something that is already dead?

So my friends, take care of your relationships…be wary of the words you speak. Never pretend because such facade will not last. Be true to the people around you because who knows. that person might save your life someday. That person might, in one way or the other might end up to be your life-long partner who would be with you all the days of your life.

You do not want a cold wife who would give you the silent treatment, right? Or a husband who seems to be the living dead. You will not want a friend treat you like you never existed, or parents who wil disown you.

So stop testing the waters. Silent waters run deep, so be careful. Once a person ceases to talk to you, or gives you short answers it usually means something is terribly wrong.

When a person drastically changes, it means you have wronged that person. Unless you are insensitive, then you won’t care, right?

Think carefully before he or she reaches her breaking point before its too late.
