Life is a broad combination of factors that add up to a whole. All these factors don’t exist in a vacuum. The universe, being a dynamic engine consisting of apparently opposite tensions and almost limitless variety, is the model of life itself. This can serve as the model of your lives together. Life’s variety can’t be segmented off and boxed into categories that isolate one of its features from all the others. The bits and pieces of our lives are not bits and pieces at all – they’re dynamically interconnected, just as the universe itself is and as we all are with one another. Your romantic relationship, therefore, is designed to be the exemplar of a greater reality; a microcosm of reality itself.
