@alexxguss If a person repeatedly believes they are in love. But repeatedly finds themselves in unhealthy relationships, repeating unhealthy relational patterns. This is probably a good place to start questioning ones perceived experience of what love feels like.

[Pauljtaylor @Pauljtaylor5]

@MariClaireBK Yes. And why we judge.

[Pauljtaylor @Pauljtaylor5]

@MariClaireBK How do i feel when i judge? Maybe one of lifes most exploratory questions?

[Pauljtaylor @Pauljtaylor5]

@MariClaireBK Yes which can lead to judging and criticism of others instead of understanding as u say.

[Pauljtaylor @Pauljtaylor5]

@MariClaireBK We are the neutral angels. Arguing between God and Satan - Camus. The burden of consciousness :)

[Pauljtaylor @Pauljtaylor5]

@DrMcFillin The will to a power.

[Pauljtaylor @Pauljtaylor5]

@MariClaireBK Respnsibilty maybe? Freedom? Maybe a fear of not belonging. That our choice will somehow separate us from our pack?What about u?

[Pauljtaylor @Pauljtaylor5]

@MariClaireBK I think..why do we ask the permission of another. Whether from an internal other or external other or even a spiritual other? Why the reliance? And if thats not the case. Then is the permission seeking just an avoidance? And if, so what is it we are avoiding?

[Pauljtaylor @Pauljtaylor5]

@MariClaireBK Oh yea hahaha

[Pauljtaylor @Pauljtaylor5]

@MariClaireBK The bit inbetween yea. The both of us. Thats where the magic is. So poss an "inbetween understanding" over an...:))))

[Pauljtaylor @Pauljtaylor5]

@MariClaireBK Although. The feeling of being imposed on. May not be to do with them. As yr power is providing the lens.

[Pauljtaylor @Pauljtaylor5]

@MariClaireBK I think thats a very powerful moment.

[Pauljtaylor @Pauljtaylor5]

@MariClaireBK Yes.But a power over self maybe. Over the situation? And thanks for the exploration. As its led me to....in that moment. In that relationship. Why does a person feel the need, intentionally or otherwise, to impose a power?

[Pauljtaylor @Pauljtaylor5]

@MariClaireBK Well if one is imposing something onto another. Whether it is intentional or unintentional. Im thinking. Is that not a power?

[Pauljtaylor @Pauljtaylor5]

@MariClaireBK Anything shared isnt really convincing then but yr qu made how as u say we intentionally or unintentionally impose our reality to an other. Or as u say another can unintentionally impose their reality onto us. So is it an unitentional power game?

[Pauljtaylor @Pauljtaylor5]

@MariClaireBK Maybe we shouldn't try to convince anyone of a reality as our reality is ours. Not theirs. Our truth is ours. So I suppose it would feel like our reality being imposed on the other.

[Pauljtaylor @Pauljtaylor5]

@MariClaireBK Yea with a few bumps along the way. And bruises haha

[Pauljtaylor @Pauljtaylor5]

@MariClaireBK Yea as we grow, we experience and so we change and so we see more. Awareness aint no comfortable ride lol

[Pauljtaylor @Pauljtaylor5]

@MariClaireBK Well humans have history so its in there somewhere i guess.
