Misunderstandings form a major part of all relationships and marriages. Every relationship needs understanding to be successful, whether or not others are aware of it. It is important that we do not neglect the meaningfulness of daily life, which more often than not occupies our thoughts and feelings as well as our relationships with others. Everyone experiences misunderstanding at some point in time during their lives, yet misunderstandings can either lead us towards stronger levels of empathy or destroy the very fabric on which a successful relationship is built upon.

Many have found comfort, support and guidance through exploring the lives of others who have faced similar barriers in their relationships. For example, William Shakespeare found himself entangled in a complicated web of misunderstandings when he wrote Romeo and Juliet. While many people believe that this play ended on an unhappy note due to the tragedy surrounding it, some argue that even though both families had opposed their relationship from the beginning…
