The interaction of two people in the world...

The interaction of two people in the world is the interaction of two minds that are seemingly different reflections of the same Self. It is like two chords played together. The consonant notes are the agreement of the reflection, while the dissonant notes are the disagreements. The consonance is easy to experience and it is natural to want to continue the interaction but it is in the dissonances that the true opportunity for self-growth lies. When the mind is ripe it learns about its misperceptions of Reality from the interaction and does not blame the other. It then sees no harm in renegotiating the relationship at a different mutually productive level. But in some cases the timing is such that such renegotiation either doesn't happen immediately or even in this lifetime.
