We cannot heal another. We can heal ourselves. With the SourCe of all knowing within us. True healing comes from within. Without that awareness, we can sink or we can be drowned, while attempting to lift another up.
Healers, helper-beings, kind people, assist those who are ready, willing, and able, to receive benefit from any and all techniques. One has to want to participate in their own healing journey. It cannot be done by another. Alone. If attempted, that one will be pulled under the current.
Put the oxygen on yourself, first, healer.
Then, on those you care for. ๐๐ผ๐๐
When she married George Harrison in 1966, the world saw a fairytale union between a rock god and his beautiful muse, but behind the closed doors of their sprawling estate, the story was drifting toward a painful conclusion. George was becoming increasingly obsessed with his spiritual journey and the demands of fame, leaving her feeling like a ghost in her own home.
Pattie Boyd once recalled, โGeorge would spend days in meditation or writing, and I would just be waiting, hoping for a conversation that never quite happened.โ
As their marriage slowly crumbled, a shadow began to hover over their lives in the form of Eric Clapton. Eric was not just a fellow musician; he was one of Georgeโs closest friends, a man who frequented their home and witnessed the cracks forming in their relationship.
It was a strange and uncomfortable dynamic, as Clapton began to develop an intense, all-consuming passion for Pattie.
"Please tell me. Give it to me. Accept the fact that you want me. I demand that you confront your feelings. You must tell me if you love me, or if you don't. You must answer me now, or I will go mad."
He channeled this agonizing longing into music, famously writing the legendary song โLaylaโ to express the depths of his yearning for a woman who was technically off-limits. For a long time, Pattie tried to ignore the pull, but as she felt increasingly neglected by her husband, Eric's persistent devotion became impossible to push away forever.
The turning point arrived in the mid-1970s. Pattie eventually left George, a decision that sent shockwaves through their tight-knit social circle. It wasnโt long before she began a new chapter with Eric.
They eventually married in 1979, with George himself attending the wedding, famously calling himself their โhusband-in-law.โ It was a bizarre, almost surreal display of British stoicism and enduring friendship, despite the messy emotional wreckage that had occurred to get them there.
Yet, the transition was far from the perfect romantic ending that the songs suggested. Living with Eric proved to be a battle against his severe demons, specifically his spiraling addiction to alcohol and drugs. Pattie found herself in a new kind of isolation, navigating a marriage defined by the volatility of substance abuse.
She later reflected,
โI thought I could save him, but I was just losing myself in the process.โ
The marriage to Eric ended in 1989, leaving Pattie to pick up the pieces of a life that had been dominated by the towering egos and complicated souls of two of the greatest guitarists in history.
She moved on to build an independent life as a photographer, finally stepping out from the shadows of the men who had immortalized her in their lyrics. She had been the inspiration for โSomethingโ by The Beatles and โWonderful Tonightโ by Eric Clapton, yet she proved that she was much more than just a muse. She was a woman who lived through the extremes of the rock and roll era, witnessing the height of creative genius and the depth of human frailty.
For far too long, the societal narrative has romanticized the idea of a woman as the ultimate healer, suggesting that if she just loves a broken man deeply enough, her devotion will be the catalyst for his transformation.
This burden of "saving" someone often traps women in cycles of emotional exhaustion, where they prioritize another personโs survival over their own peace of mind
True healing must come from within the individual who is suffering; it is a personal journey that no amount of external love can shortcut.
Love is not a rescue mission.
