On relationship

What is a relationship?
Why do we have them?
Just because you have had a relationship with someone in the past, does that really mean you have to continue?
When a relationship ends, does it really ever end? Doesn't the energy just change form into something else?
What is the currency of relationship? What is it based on?
Is it equal exchange? Give and take? Serial need? Security? Fear? Love? Respect? Shared goals? Or something else?
Where do demands creep in in relationship? How is it helpful or hurtful?
What does freedom mean in the context of relationship?
How do you live your freedom every day?

Could you be with more than one person at a time?
What does "being" with someone even mean?
Aren't you "being" here with me, right now?
And you are "being" yourself right here, right now, with the world as well?
You are just being here with many people, in many different ways, at different times.
It is a spectrum, like a rainbow. Many different shades of relationship.
A more diverse and pluralistic view to be sure.
Who says we even have to have a "primary" relationship at all?
Our primary relationship isn't a relationship at all.
It is a Oneness with the oneness of ourself, and The Oneness.
We are all One, just dreaming that we are separate, in order to learn our lessons.
Now we are returning back home to each other, and to ourselves.
