Who doesn’t want to share time with people who help us become who we aspire to be?

Our individuality is entwined with our connectedness; so the work of healing and growth happens both alone and in relation to others.

After all, what is a person other than a whole history of associations, loves, memories, attachments, and affinities? Who are we, other than all the others who have made us who we are, and to whom we belong as much as they to us? We are those others.

even in cases where we’re devoted to a person, and know a lot about them, it’s still possible to not see them. You can be loved by a person yet not be known by them.

Psychologists recommend that you ask your friend to fill in the blanks to these two statements: “In our family, the one thing you must never do is _____” and “In our family, the one thing you must do above all else is ________.”

If reflection reveals who you are and relationship reveals the world you want to see, then creation is what merges those two domains together. By expressing the core of who you are through the medium of your choice, you act as a beacon for those that share a similar core as well.
