Hi Antigua,
Good to hear from you. Yes, I am feeling better although I hope to feel better still. Thanks for asking.
Your point about how long these things take, the truly geological time-frame (to wring the metaphor) that such changes take place in, is well taken. Imagine if each series of thoughts had its own circuitry. Now imagine how many times that particular train of thought would have to be repeated to successfully rewire the circuit? Over and over and over and over....
The other thing we have to learn is tolerance. Of affect, imperfection and errors, misfortune. That hopefully we'll be able to tolerate those times that we are capsized, carried down the rapids and over a waterfall before we can right ourselves, find our oars, and paddle onwards.
I really hope you keep posting, antigua.
Lucie
