Guest guest Posted September 18, 1999 Report Share Posted September 18, 1999 Dear Gerry sorry for mispelling your dear name dearheart. Here is another quote to make up for it. Bye now, Love, Col This week's chapter is from the 2nd book in the "Reflections of the Christ Mind" series "Silence of the Heart" by Paul Ferrini. "When faced with your absolute, uncompromising commitment to yourself, others either join you or move swiftly out of your way. Grey spaces created by your ambivalence - your desire to have something and give it up at the same time - move toward yea or nay. Clarity emerges as the clouds of self-doubt and attachment are burned away by the committed, radiant self. When one person moves toward individuation, it gives everyone permission to do the same. Dysfunctional family structures are dismantled and new structures that honour the individuals involved are put in their place. This is what commitment to self does. It destroys sloppiness, co-dependency, neurotic bargaining for love, boredom, apathy and critical behaviour. It frees the individuals to be themselves and to come back into a more genuine alignment in a conscious way."
