Outgrowing Your Relationship Is Normal
Yes, the downside to pursuing a life of personal growth is that you might outgrow your friends and family and zip right past them.
Seems like a weird thing to worry about, but worry about it we do. Because when it happens, it’s painful. It’s sad.
I’m not going to bother with the whole crabs in a bucket story because I’m sure you’ve heard it.
Your friends and family fit who you are right now. We’re all floating on the same level of awareness in our big bathtub of life. If we connect, then we’re generally at the same level.
However, you’re maybe not so content with this level. It’s got some icky parts. You’re tired of the negativity. Tired of the constant lack-thinking. Fed up with the family bullshit. Done with feeling stuck in work that leaves you totally exhausted yet unfulfilled when you come home.
