Relationship are part of the vast plan for our enlightenment.
No true search for enlightenment ignores the suffering of other sentient beings. Ever. We simply need to create a way to address that suffering while remaining in a blissful center.
The last thing we should do is allow ourselves to be infantilized by a counterfeit version of enlightenment.
Enlightenment doesn't mean we were never wounded; it means we've found a way to evolve beyond our wounds. Enlightenment isn't idealistic; it's practical. What's idealistic is thinking we can live from our wounds, stay in our weakness, and ever transform the world.
Enlightenment is the only real antidote to the world's despair.
