Not yet on the book. The only decent book store here in town is way over on the other side. I have three books on my list, I'll probably pick up this one and SSM for now. For some reason I have really held off on SSM, but I think it might be time. There seems to be something not addressed yet and these two books might have it.

As for your other observations, there might be some truth there. I have felt that I have been trying to grow mentally and spiritually over the years. W has put very little into the spiritual side of things, partially I feel due to disharmony. I think you know what I mean. Teachings one way, W wants to go another. My goal was not to grow away from her, just to grow in the direction that I should and she would follow. But I think there is a humility issue there. But I guess we all have this issue to some extent.

On a positive note, interaction with W seems to be getting better, doing more things together, sometime W suggesting activity. Some good txt msgs from W this morning. For my own sanity I will focus on the positive and not the negative. If the negative comes I will deal with it then, not over analyze it now.

Hope you can follow this, just working through some of my thoughts here on the thread.
