Thanks so much for this article. It is certainly timely for me. I feel the squeeze of relationship right now very keenly. I see that in general I am given to expansion and exploration and alternately, my husband finds deeper meaning in repeated passes through the familiar. This difference is being unmistakably highlighted right now! I feel him as a restriction to me, even as I acknowledge that all limitations to myself are only internal. I am learning a great deal in this crucible, none of which is comfortable but all of which is beautiful. I also have had the rather wondrous realization lately that in relationship to god energy, I have most consistently projected it as "other" and am in the process of looking at that mirror and learning to integrate. I think the urge to separate the divine into other stems from both a sense of unworthiness (which, as I type that, strikes me as a mind/ego game, simply another way to buy time) and also a bit of a desire to skirt responsibility. If I am to see and claim all of who I AM, well, that's a game changer, isn't it? And THAT is what I am interested in! (while, in honesty, acknowledging my fear). Thanks for the food for thought.
