In his book Political Ideals (1917, 2008), the British Philosopher Bertrand Russell wrote “It is not finished Utopia that we ought to desire, but a world where imagination and hope are alive and active”.
This makes me think of a vision for a good relationship – any relationship. It is not about reaching s Utopian state, problems and tensions will most likely arise, but about approaching each other creatively and with hope, beyond the stereotypical views we so easily develop on the people so close to us.
