The Pull: Relationships & Their Spiritual Significance

“When we find another soul, we are finding another particle of God. When we reveal our soul, we reveal a particle of God. We give something divine to each other.

Then God will guide us, allowing us to make the best of helping each other along the way. That’s what true love is about. And that’s how being in a relationship can become a spiritual path—a path within a spiritual path, if you will.”
—The Guide’s wisdom in Jill Loree’s words

The Pull is about discovering the truth about relationships: they are the doorway through which we come to ultimately know ourselves and God. Through them, we can learn to fully live. Because while life may be many things, more than anything else, it is all about relationships. If we don’t relate, we don’t live.

Yet we may notice there are very few people we can really relate to, sharing our real sorrows, needs, worries and wishes. Very few, if any. But in the end, these two things are mutually exclusive: having genuine relationships and being lonely and unhappy.

We each keep a wall around our heart. We need to get to know it if we want to comprehend our loneliness. We need to understand how we affect others and in return, understand their affect on us. If we shy away from this, we’ll stay in isolation. We’ll end up fearing death because we let our life pass us by, while we cling to the pseudo-safety of solitary confinement.

Once we liberate ourselves from our self-inflicted prison by learning to understand ourselves better, we’ll intuitively find the right people to share the right amount of information with in the right way. We only need to follow that pull.
