Checking in....

[Tarri]

Haven't stopped to write in a while so doing so before sleep. I am finally seeing a few positive results from all my studies and hard work. I am finding that some of the things that would happen and totally screw up my composure are still happening, but I react in a more objective calm way, giving the experience my FULL attention instead of a mind riddled with frustration and anger. I guess because I am honoring the experience (?) Maybe, they do not last as long and they resolve much more quickly. For example, I was on my scooter (back in the wheelchair again) on my way to two appointments in town and my scooter dies in the middle of a busy enter section. I am leaning down pushing the reset button but this does nothing. Normally the drivers are quite rude and come close to hitting me at times. But during this situation I had three nice drivers offering to help. We got my scooter onto the curb. Than I sat there wondering what I was going to do. I am amazingly calm still. I heard a very quiet thought that I aught to try readjusting the battery. If I had been upset I never would have 'thought' to do this. It worked and the rest of my day was sweet. I am also 'feeling' JOY. I have not felt this since Moms death. Something is working!
Just so you know, the reason I haven't written is because I can't put Laura's book down. It's on my Kindle. I am readind Stripped to the Bone over again. There is SO MUCH information in there. Accept a great big hug and thanks from me Laura. Ok, I'm getting a little reading in before sleep. Have a great weekend guys. Tarri

I also recently finished re-reading Stripped to the Bone, and I was surprised at how much information there was that the I had completely bypassed in the first reading. The Wave books are really ones that have to be re-read a few times I think like the rest of the Work material.

Hello Tarri:

it is good to know that hard work really pays off, it had done so for me too, ever since I change all my bad habits for new positive ones my life has been a blessing, ,I keep on working towards a full realization, I know there will be some more hurdles on the way, but I am convinced that I will get through them.


keep up the good work .....

That sounds like a step in the right direction, Tarri. I, too, have troubles with emotional thinking so I know where you're coming from. Moments of success with this issue, for me, have been a good indicator that efforts in the Work are paying off.

This resonates with me, I'm seeing life somehow "light", and spare sometime situations that were stressful, and today simply are not.

Thanks guys. I am glad to read that others are seeing positive results from the work also. :) I love that we have each other, even if its only online. After all if you think for a moment. We really arw not seperated. We and all life are One. :) Tarri :)

I am battling the same thing here. Here's some food for thought:

Our self-importance requires that we spend most of our lives offended by something.
