I think all of our relationships are significant because they all teach us something about learning to love unconditionally.  I think it's wonderful when two people living together as a couple can share in their spiritual search and be supportive of each other.  However, when opinions differ, there is still much to learn... perhaps even more in some cases.  It's probably just a matter of believing that we are always being guided to have the experiences we need most.

Sometimes people stay on the same path together, sometimes they wander alone, sometimes they depart on separate roads.  Will they meet again?  Only the journey will tell them....

Its often important for both to be on the same path, but not necessary for happiness.

My husband is pretty much grounded in C1..whereas I spend more time in the astral.

We have a good life, but I know that often he just doesn't quite understand.  I can tell, when his eyes glaze over and he starts talking about the latest NASCAR race as a diversion..

Thing is, he doesn't mind my explorations and even once attempted to join in.  It was on another board, and we were trying PE..meeting at a big crystal (not the TMI one).  He remembered nothing though.

hehe

you have a good attitude Hannah about relationships, I'm sure that's why it has lasted so long.
I'm convinced that relationship one on one here is about learning how to forgive the other for not meeting expectations we hold about what they are in our lives for, then you could say we are discovering what PUL is through forgiveness, and that expectations are conditions we set up, love then can be unconditional and spring eternal up from forgiveness.
but if you were a hippy, you may have known this all along. sometimes forgiveness, or letting go of expectations is a daily affair until each one "gets it."
did u ever read that book back in the 60's called "I'm ok, you're ok?  I took one look at the title and got the whole message just from that title and I told my children exactly what you told them! they seemed to turn out ok despite I didn't tell them much else!

signed..love to laugh....

Ha, ha!    "I'm just bursting to tell someone and he's handy." This made me laugh.

He sometimes listens to me, but I don't often try to engage him in these conversations unless I've had an experience so powerful that I'm just bursting to tell someone and he's handy!
