Patterns

What are all the ways you’ve been disappointed in love? It takes a while to understand that old patterns play out. So, unless you find someone whose complementary trauma meets yours, and they or you are prepared to put up with a compromise for the sake of commitment, the relationship wheels keep on turning. A chance each time to cultivate self-awareness and to realise that all may not be well within ourselves. Acceptance of our flaws and recognition of our hidden gifts are as important influences as any of the other qualities on our putative lists of perfect partners.
