The enabling relationship always assumes that the other is never fully knowable.

quote
Lauren_Ho

People who feel empty never heal by merging with another incomplete person. On the contrary, two broken-winged birds coupled into one make for clumsy flight. No amount of patience will help it fly; and, ultimately, each must be pried from the other, and wounds separately splinted.

A selection of beloved mr #yalom 's fav books. Clockwise: When Nietzsche Wept, Schopenhauer Cure, Lying on the Couch, Love Executioner. Newest baby in the group on the top: Staring at the Sun - gift from a dearest friend!

Dorothea_An Spinoza problem is missing, as I borrowed it from a friend - and I have the bad habit of returning the books :-) 7y
