Everything's temporary. In a strange way, we've developed such a commitment to permanence, and we are chasing permanence in every area of our lives, therefore divorcing ourselves from nature at every moment. We've got to stop holding on to things as if they're here to be forever, and I think that relates to every area of human life.

I think the most damage we do to one another is through trying to make relationships permanent.

and in that we anchor each other to a past reality that's no longer real and so when you try to make permanent the love that you feel for somebody you're asking them to be the thing that you fell in love with permanently and the fact is they won't only even be that by the time you marry them like they've already changed and yet you're trying to anchor them in a point in time of i fell in love with these traits

And in that process, you will drain them of those traits. And that's the Course in Miracles definition of human relationships. And so there's this amazing moment as you go through the Course in Miracles of realizing, oh, my God, I'm creating the hell that I'm living in by draining the divine nature of everything around me out of it by believing that I'm separate from the source.

I'm separate from nature. And so when you are separate from nature and then you separate God from nature and then you separate yourself twice from God,

I'm separate from nature. And so when you are separate from nature and then you separate God from nature and then you separate yourself twice from God,

you're going to start sucking everything from around you until it's gone and that's ultimately what a cancer cell does a cancer cell not realizing it's part of the greater organism in its isolation it starts to fail to be able to make its own energy so it has to draw energy from other sources and so as small as a tumor is you know somebody dying of lung cancer that lung cancer is smaller than it might be the size of a baseball at the most but oftentimes the size of golf ball

it represents 0.1% of the total body. How is that actually killing an organism? It's sucking so much energy out of the greater organism in its loneliness, in its sense of disconnect, in its sense that it is incomplete and can't solve for the wholeness. So in its desperate nature to try to become whole, it's sucking you dry.

And so we have in our constructs of marriage and relationship that's trying to reach for permanence, draining each other of the best within us. And I've been through two marriages to the two most amazing women I've ever met, and I drained the best out of both of them, and they drained the best out of me.
