Here's a wonderful letter I received from a dear woman who attended the seminar in April. Isn't life great? **************** Dear Michele:
I'm very moved by what's happening in my life right now. Jason, my husband, keeps responding to my changes, so I keep making them. We're on track to be a couple again in time for the May anniversary of "our first kiss" 17 years ago. The way we're behaving, it's going to be a romantic anniversary.
I'm just amazed. Moved, astounded and humble, too. And you know, we were bitter, resentful and estranged in December when I picked up your book.
I would NEVER in a million years have been willing to soften first if your words hadn't reached something (sensible) in me. I would NEVER have been able to open my heart. I was hurt, righteous, adamant and miserable not very long ago. We were both depressed and sinking.
Your book opened my eyes and offered me a lifeline. I'm not kidding! I didn't believe you at first, but I had to laugh as I did the exercises and saw I was being stubborn. I softened. I stopped accusing. I shut up and dressed up and attended to myself -- what did I have to lose?
Your book and your messageboard guided me. I would have retaliated and initiated an affair if you hadn't told me I could save my M. I'm proud to say I listened and learned.
I'm doing things differently now, and not out of desperation and pain, but because I want to thank my H for being nice to me. Yes, nice! The MEAN guy who stonewalled me for months DANCED with me at a party last Saturday and winked "let's go home early."
And he came home with with his cheery, friendly, no-longer-resentful, no-longer-grudge-holding, no-longer-self-pitying wife.
Right now I'm totally absorbed by DB -- I gave my DR to my sister. I feel like the missing piece of the puzzle of how relationships work has fallen into place in my life and I want to apply these ideas all over the place.
Once again, thanks from the heart, and smiles from a satisfied customer.
