Andrew Boyd

Compassion hurts. When you feel connected to everything, you also feel responsible for everything. And you cannot turn away. Your destiny is bound with the destinies of others. You must either learn to carry the Universe or be crushed by it. You must grow strong enough to love the world, yet empty enough to sit down at the same table with its worst horrors.

We__e all seeking that special person who is right for us. But if you__e been through enough relationships, you begin to suspect there__ no right person, just different flavors of wrong. Why is this? Because you yourself are wrong in some way, and you seek out partners who are wrong in some complementary way. But it takes a lot of living to grow fully into your own wrongness. And it isn__ until you finally run up against your deepest demons, your unsolvable problems__he ones that make you truly who you are__hat we__e ready to find a lifelong mate. Only then do you finally know what you__e looking for. You__e looking for the wrong person. But not just any wrong person: it's got to be the right wrong person__omeone you lovingly gaze upon and think, __his is the problem I want to have.__ will find that special person who is wrong for me in just the right way.
