Most of us have probably experienced or are currently dealing with aspects of unfulfilled or broken romance — with life, with a partner, or with a dreamy, dream, dream… fantasy.

Isn’t it interesting how we can sometimes let the game play us? We are conditioned by our surroundings, and Western culture has a somewhat negative bias. Struggle and violence are more heroic than ease, grace, and lightness. The fear of sickness, pain, and death is more acceptable than the joy of living, breathing, and experiencing the complete profundity of every waking moment.
Everyone finds their way back to the truth in their own time. No one needs preaching, outside influence, or any other kind of contrived manipulation to guide them home, not even from those who may genuinely believe themselves to be well-intentioned and benevolent.
In the Western world, we have learned to live with a complex web of constraints, the majority of which are cleverly disguised. Many of us have forgotten our childhood dreams by the time we reach adulthood, and we live a mostly functional, but quietly desperate, life.
Stuff will come up as we delve into our depths, liberating the flow of our authenticity. Our challenge is to transcend the usual reflexes and impulses we’ve been reliant upon. We need to be okay with them.
