A Reminder

POWERFUL REMINDER

Every human relationship is sacred. Relationships founded on obligations or expectations are stressed and lack freedom and love. A perfect loving relationship is the one where there are no demands, no expectations, and no dependency.
I am reminded of the Gestalt Prayer

I do my thing and you do your thing.
I am not in this world to live up to your expectations,
And you are not in this world to live up to mine.
You are you, and I am I,
and if by chance we find each other, it's beautiful.

(Fritz Perls, "Gestalt Therapy Verbatim", 1969)
