What Price Relationship “Freedom?”
At the February meeting someone suggested the topic of rejection which I think is deserving of time and attention. I’d like to broaden it a bit to include not only those who’ve felt rejected, but also those who’ve ended or changed up relationships and the feelings that come along with being the “rejector.”
Frequently, it seems that no matter what good the intent, the impact can be quite painful. But what about needs, wants, desires?Yours? and Yours? And mine? Complex. There was a scene in the movie Out of Africa where Meryl Streep is imploring Robert Redford to stick around. Each making their own case…he for being FREE, to come and to go, she for having the FREEDOM to love him as she would, keeping him around. Hmmm…quite the conundrum.
See you in March.
