List;
   Here's the thoughts I was deluged with about relationships earlier.
That is, considering that one is reasonably awakened & aware upon the
spiritual path, even if we think we are "in love", how can we live in
close proximity to a partner less awakened? Maybe they even ridicule the
spiritual questing.
   Obviously, the easiest answer is to not hook up with partners stuck
upon a material plane, but is it that easy for people to consider?
   Does our heart palpitate faster when this person is near, & one is
totally smitten, & yet we must admonish ourselves; "this person is in
another world, & threatens my spiritual practices"? and turn away? Is it
really that simple?
   Sure, intellectually we all know the "right thing" to do, but one CAN
be *in love* with a barbarian, & consider we are getting a pretty good
deal if he/she does not abuse us in any way besides that.
   I found myself with a "live in lover" who was a total sceptic of all
things spiritual. Along with his package he also had no regard for my
art, or my music, it was like he was so self-obsessed, that he only
recognized things that made him feel better, like food, sex, & torturing
me after ridiculing my spiritual beliefs. It was *my* trailer, & I threw
him out.
   Now it's like 4 years later. I finished crying over him about that
long ago. It seems like I tend to make myself into somebody's *victim*
every time when it comes to the heart.
   And I sold the trailer & moved to town.
   I think you guys are all correct in admonishing to love ourselves
first & foremost.
   But while I am wondering & wandering, I am just really curious how
other people deal with relationships. Do people cut OFF the chance of a
relationship when it becomes known that the potential suitor is a
spiritual cynic?
   Are we looking specifically or someone on our particular wavelength,
or is it okay to believe that we are put there to nourish & convert this
individual eventually? Or is it a case of just ignoring or tolerating
each other until later on?
   Aaarg. I am seemingly never done questioning these items lately...
   Can it be forever, or just together for awhile?
