Our understanding of how human beings work is undergoing a pretty massive transformation. Love, compassion, and understanding used to be qualities we could bring into our lives to combat the very real problems of separation, confusion, and disconnection.Now we know that love, compassion, and understanding are who we are. They can’t be absent. Separation, confusion,
A client just told me about terminal uniqueness.
