The dictionary defines the word “sustain” as meaning “to give support to, to keep up the vitality or courage of.” Relationships do require support and vitality, in order to thrive, and as anyone who has successfully navigated their way through the sometimes treacherous waters of committed partnership knows, courage as well. Lots of it. This territory can be dangerous especially for those of us who have been hurt in past relationships and want to protect ourselves from future pain, or those who want to avoid the possibility of loss or disappointment, or those who are disinclined to be emotionally honest or vulnerable. This only includes about 100% of the population. In growing up, most of us learn very little about the process of building healthy relationships, and we end up having to learn about it on the job, or putting it in a way that is more relevant to our subject, on the playground.
