Simplified Meaning:
Relationships between people are about supporting each other's individual independence and inner lives. Imagine two lonely people living next to each other. They each have their own personal space and thoughts. When they become friends, they don't merge into one person. Instead, they respect each other's need for alone time and personal growth, while also offering support and understanding. A good friendship or partnership thrives when both people become stronger individuals because of the relationship. So, in our lives, we should aim to be friends or partners who help each other become better, more independent, and not overly dependent on each other.
