I foresee this blog as an exploration of conscious relationship – attracting one, and the learning process throughout its lifespan. As a romantic idealist at heart, I love the Hollywood storyline of “happy ever after, marriage, family, growing old together.” However, I’m too poetic to fully buy into the superficiality of that outline sketch. I savor the moments of poignancy; when the depth of my vulnerability elicits the tenderness of my partner’s compassion, when my boundaries are stretched and my heart has to take on new dimensions of empathy for my partner’s struggles, when deeper honesty carves straight to the bone, to reveal the skeletal structure of our belief systems.
Because I know that love is what we learn here, I can sink my leonine teeth into the grinding, gritty, gristle of a difficult moment and extract the essential juice of it with grace. I’m salivating as I write this, my body responding to the beautiful visceral experience of learning what I’m here to learn. A sense of lightness fills my being as I sense my wheel of karma evolving, literally turning me up the spiral into a new plane of experience with even more refined, subtle variations on the themes I’ve been consciously exploring for all of my adult life.
