Oneness
To love is to recognize yourself in another.
Eckhart Tolle
Emotional Integrity
People can have a high level of personal integrity, yet still lack emotional integrity. It is possible to be a bastion of honesty in general, yet not be fully able to face and own your own feelings. Painful feelings are temporary. They only go away when they are faced and dealt with. Avoiding your emotional truth gives it more power over you and your partner.
