there are some people who think conflict is required to bring about higher levels of consciousness, though that’s probably just a hierarchy of needs things playing out more often than not.
there’s this old jewish tradition uh…i forget the word for it, but basically the most sacred act you can do is teach someone else to be self sufficient. (whether that’s financially/emotionally/whatever, before you can seriously help others you must be self sufficient, therefor you should help others become self sufficient).
