We believe we enter relationships to experience the highs of romance and love. However, it’s clear that all love ultimately leads to heartbreak.
Our desire is to be a vehicle of freedom for each other.
Relationships have a shape to them. That shape is both defined by and defines how we interact with it.
There is freedom in the pure offering of love itself.
As with birth, a woman learns to continually dilate through the contractions.
Anywhere we withheld vulnerability from another human being is a place we remain in bondage with them.
I am all things awaiting.
A woman on a train platform,
a woman by a phone,
a woman across a table
opening the anniversary gift.
There are women these
days, ecofeminists they
call themselves,
who have taken on
trees as lovers.
If they can do that,
I can take you on, too,
as a memory, a mountain.
Jordan Peterson has a great quotation on his view of love: “If you love someone, if it’s genuine love, you see their hidden soul. You get a glimpse of light that they could reveal to the world if it were revealed.”
