Just because someone isn't good for you doesn't mean that they're a terrible person.

We can disconnect from people and acknowledge the good parts of the relationship. It's healthy to remember both.

My philosophy is, we don't engage in anything that isn't on some level useful to us. And sure we can go through some really painful stuff in our life that you wouldn't wish on other people but usually when you come through it, and you start to approach the healing of it - however far you get with the healing of it - you start to see that within the pain of it or within the difficulty of it, there were also really useful lessons that will make you behave differently in the future, or make you sense differently in the future.

“The loss of the feminine in our personal lives takes many forms, but many of us can live a whole lifetime without knowing what is at the root of our missing. It may be felt as a secret longing for a way of life, a feeling of inclusion, or a set of practices which are currently ridiculed in our culture as insipid, insubstantial, or even dangerous. Devalued for generations of patriarchal culture, our families and cultures are left with little to no recollection of how to esteem and tend to these qualities in ourselves or one another.”

These qualities are what I consider aptitudes of the soul. The feminine values the intelligence of our feelings; recognizes the necessity of ceremony and rites of passage; teaches the power of listening and being witnessed; holds the significance of intuition and dreams; it is sensitivity itself, vulnerability, and it honours the body’s wisdom."
