Ham: Well, my son, these kinds of situations are always [[difficult]]. I cannot say that you handled it in a perfectly [[God-like]] way, because this is a human [[interaction]], and thus had to be handled in a human way, as loving as it could be. You must each now find your own [[strength]] to go forward and find [[forgiveness]] for each other in your [[hearts]] and [[eventual]] [[acceptance]]. Be at ease my son.

Ham - there's a term I hear lately called [http://www.wikihow.com/Recognize-a-Toxic-Friend Toxic Friendship] and it refers to friendships that are really [[negative]] and draining . . . .

Ham: Yes, of course. Very often your [[love]] is [[rejected]] or [[manipulated]]. As people grow, especially in [[man]] and [[woman]] relationships, which are the closest and most [[intense]] [[relationships]], often times one person will grow in the [[spirit]], and the other one is not ready to move that far yet. And may be very resentful of the person who is growing. In this situation, [[the Father]] is actually allowing you to [[separate]]. It is said that the Father brings two people together until such time as he wills them apart. And this may happen many times in he [[course]] of one's life and it does not mean that you are somehow [[failing]] and often times it only means that you are [[growing]]. When the Father truly brings two people together, they will stay [[together]] and no [[force]] can pull them apart. Simply understand that if you are going through a time when you are going through different relationships, this is a time of [[growth]], even a time of [[preparing]] with someone who will last a much longer time.

Hal: Yes, I was smoking some very [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marijuna good medicine] at the time, and my question would be if it's appropriate to seek additional [[enlightenment]] through such herbs, or rather should we take the long [[path]] to enlightenment through [[meditation]] and a concentration on [[stillness]] and the spiritual [[contemplation]]?
