Judy: Thanks! I actually have something on paper, but it needs a lot of work. That’s my project this weekend.

Tonya and Kathie: I know EXACTLY what you mean about nodding along, thinking “I get it!” while I’m reading or listening…and then it kind of goes by the way side in practice. Like so many things in life, I guess, it’s common sense. Kathie: I also hope that the more I hear or experience something, the more it will help and become part of me. At least the good stuff I hear and experience.

Tonya, that happens to me all the time–when I’m listening to a speaker and it’s all perfectly clear and then upon leaving, everything leaves me. I have to hope that somehow it all gets embedded in bodily places I can’t purposely access! That it becomes available when I need it. Nice post, Susan.

A Course in Miracles describes resistance in much the same way. For instance, when I attend my teacher’s study group, all that he will say makes sense to me. Absolute-perfect, angels-singing, clouds-parting sense!! Then I leave and go home and can’t remember anything…

We tend to look “out there” for problems or distractions so we can procrastinate on the self-work that needs to be done. And boy, looking “out there” definitely provides it for us, doesn’t it?

By the way, regarding what you said about how my words seem to help you: we always teach what we need to learn.

Everything I say to you is stuff that I need to process too! We’re in the same boat, my friend.

Big hugs!

Susan, slap down any old crap in 15 minutes and call it a synopsis. You might surprise yourself with some pretty good stuff! You can do it!

Writesome: This is an easy read — even easy enough for tired blogger moms.

Glad to see your FB status included being productive in front of the computer tonight…my guess is the synopsis is creating itself? The War of Art…somehow I’m picturing War and Peace. Is it a quick read for tired blogger moms?

I love Facebook! I got on to keep track of Lovely Daughter, since she never calls. I’ll see if I can find you.

Also, it sounds like I definitely need to get that book.
