Quote: think it was also that after the bomb dropped I took a good look at ME and realized how much pressure and anger and impatience and intolerance I was bringing into the m. -- all under the guise of "getting things done" or "doing things the RIGHT way". I was doing a lot of meditating on compassion at the time and I just realized how much it must have hurt my h to be perceived as so darned WRONG all the time.

Thank you so much for sharing. This helps...AND...I went and checked out Ruiz' books! My bookstore didn't carry "Mastery of Love" but it did carry the "Four Agreements". I love it so far! Be true to your word, don't personalize, don't assume, do your best. Four simple concepts that are SO powerful that they alone will do wonders for my own personal freedom. Thank you, thank you.
Also, thank you for holding my hand yesterday. The whole thing is very scary and I really appreciate all the time you invested yesterday.
