"You’ll increasingly find yourself disconnected from obligation and the ability to be manipulated by guilt or fear. You’ll be able to be around others, even those who disagree with your journey, and not be influenced by their angst. It’s a tough lesson to be sure, but one that will reap great rewards. If we try to force others to our own conclusions, we’re playing the same game of conformity and manipulation that they are. Love doesn’t press; it entreats."
