SHARING OUR WAY

There's an old Rosicrucian saying, "Two may go where one dare not." This life seems to be meant to be lived in relationship. While there are those who become hermits or recluses, most of us seem to thrive and flourish when we are sharing our life path with others of like mind and heart. 'Significant Other' is an interesting expression we hear these days. When someone is sharing our life, that person is significant to us, but he is also 'other' than us. The significant other is significant not because he or she is the same as us but because of the differences between us. Yet even though there are differences, we can still share the life journey together. Perhaps it is the very differences that make it possible for us to travel our way together. So sharing our way means recognizing and affirming the uniqueness and individuality of the people who have chosen to walk together with us.
