This resonates with me, I already knew the truth of it. What is hard, is to find a teacher who knows the truth of this and doesn’t offer only fast ineffective, often costly, solutions.

I realized years ago that the universe has to teach us the same lesson over and over again. That is until you learn to apply the lesson to your life, and not just to the current situation. That the lesson applies across the spectrum of your life.

What is true is true. That if it applies to romantic relationships, it also applies to family relationships, friend relationships and your relationship to your work and yourself.

I have been lurking as a free subscriber, trust issues, since joining Substack. I am glad to now be here as a paid subscriber.

Wow. You write so many profound stand alone sentences that I find myself slowing down and savoring them, letting them work their magic inside. Thank you.
