Write down the names of two people with whom you have a vertical relationship. it can be in the family, at school, or at work. now, write down two things that you do to positively reinforce that relationship.

Before talking about with whom I may have a vertical type of relationship, it is important to define what this is, in order to know who I have that with. A vertical relationship, in human relationships, is defined as a type of relationship of superiority and inferiority, or, up and down. Basically, the two people relate with one another in an up and down manner, with one being superior be it due to more knowledge, or status, or power, and the other being inferior for the same reasons. Althought usually considered negative, when there is an abuse of this superior-inferior ideal, they can also be positive, for example, in the case of parents and children, or in the workplace, given that the superior person uses his superiority to help the other below and shares those things that make him higher.

In my case, two people I have this type of relationship with, would be my boss at work, simply because he is my superior in status, knowledge and experience, and of course, my parents. They are superior to me hierarchicly in knowledge and wisdom.

What I do to keep a positive relationship with them, both my boss and my parents, is to acknowledge my limitations, and accept their wisdom and their desire to teach me and help guide me. I also try to keep myself open, not defiant, whenever they try to guide me, or help me, or correct me.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

the anwser is went creeping down the river again, across the wide lonely marshes to the sea.

i longed to go with them out into the world to seek my fortune in foreign lands—africa, india, china and peru!

and, dreaming of the lands i had never seen, i'd sit on there, watching till they were out of sight.
