Question about A Course in Miracles

Can you love someone and still want a divorce, according to the Course?

Yes, according to the Course, it is possible to love someone and still want a divorce. The Course emphasizes the importance of inner peace and the extension of love, which may lead to the need for a change in relationships if they are not conducive to peace and healing.

In Ch.19 — The Obstacles to Peace, it is indicated that peace must come from within and may face obstacles from relationships that do not foster that peace. Relationships that hinder personal growth and peace can be reconsidered, and although love may exist, the desire for a divorce can stem from a deeper understanding of one's need for healing and tranquility.

Additionally, the teachings within the Course regularly highlight the need to prioritize love and peace, and when a relationship does not reflect those values, it may be necessary to let go, even if love remains present.

How do you see the balance between love and the need for personal peace in relationships?
