Most people enter into relationships with an eye toward what they can get out of them, rather than what they can put into them. The purpose of a relationship is to decide what part of yourself you'd like to see "show up," not what part of another you can capture and hold. The purpose of a relationship is not to have another who might complete you; but to have another with whom you might share your completeness.
Neale Donald WalschHowever little of anything you have, you can always find someone who has less. Find that someone, and give to them from the abundance that is yours.
Neale Donald WalschNo highly evolved being would ever seek to control the thoughts of anyone, or cause anyone to think or act involuntarily. More along the lines of inspiration and invitation. As when one suddenly experiences an insight, or says, "I've just had a great idea." They can accept it and act on it, or reject it out of hand. There's no "control" involved.
Neale Donald WalschWhat is important in your life is what you decide is important -- and this decision will indelibly create who you are
