Transformation
Transformation is active in my life and I accept powerful change
to continue. I grow daily into greater awareness and acceptance of
my wholeness and true nature. I am like the caterpillar changing
into a butterfly, allowing my true Self to emerge.

Yourself

Greetings from the
Editor:
12-12-66
Today is my wedding anniversary of 40
years. Yes, I said 40 years. My husband and I married young,
ages 19 and 20. We began a traditional unaware relationship,
yet over time learned to create a conscious, rewarding
partnership.
Two important events shaped my life and
impacted the marriage. I signed up for a marriage and family
therapy course in 1977 while working on my master’s degree
in counseling. Doors opened for an intense inner journey of
study. Then in 1979, while living in Thibodaux, LA for a short
time (my husband took a job transfer), I applied for and was
hired to teach a student development course at the small
university in the town. Part of the curriculum was building
self-esteem, using L.S. Barksdale’s materials. I benefited
from the ideas as much and probably more than the college
freshmen. Read more in my lead article.
Fortunate Blessings,
Suzanne

Recently, my husband I were visiting my
brother-in-law. When there was a lull in the conversation I
said, "Guess what? We are soon to be married for 40
years!" Then I reached over, hugged and kissed my husband
and said, "And we still like each other." My
brother-in-law laughed and said, "Still? I’d say
finally." We three laughed. Then he proceeded to say that
he hasn’t seen a couple as different as we are stay together
and find such peace and harmony. I was immediately reminded of
earlier times when things, were not so. How did we move to a
place of compatibility and acceptance for each other’s
differences so that most of the time now our personalities
blend well?

Question: The person I am in
relationship with has a problem with telling the truth. Even
when it would make no difference, my partner will change the
facts sometimes. Integrity and being a person of my word is
one of my top values, but not so with my partner, who thinks I
overreact. We have gone around and around with this and I need
more information.

Perfectly imperfect…….I try to remember
that phrase when challenges spring up, but sometimes that’s
hard, really hard. Of course, our children give us the greatest
opportunity to learn this lesson—some more than others.
All I can ever remember wanting to be when I
grew up was a mother. I was going to do a better job than I felt
my mother had, though with the years I realized that she
didn’t do such a bad job and that whatever the quality of the
job, she did the best that she could. In those years, I held the
conviction that having a child and being the mother of a
successful child only required love. That’s true, but I now
have some caveats to that statement. What I didn’t understand
was that love encompasses lots and lots of territory. For me the
most difficult aspect of love was accepting that sometimes it
means letting go and letting that child that you love fail, and
fail miserably by almost any standards. And further that there
might not be a quick turnaround—it might take years and years,
or even a lifetime or two...

How good are you at managing your assets?
Over the past few years, I have received a few invitations to
attend seminars at high-class restaurants. Naturally, I have
attend a few and enjoyed a nice meal and at the same time
listened to expert financial managers teach me how to take care
of my assets.
Most of the speakers are overweight and do
not seem to be in the best of health. The audiences are mostly
elderly retired people and most of them appear to be on
medications, very few seem to be fit and healthy. It appears
that many peoples wholeness affluence has turned into
unwholesome effluence, when it comes to authentic, serene mind
& body asset management....

Does Objective Reality Exist, or is
the Universe a Phantasm? In 1982, a remarkable event took place.
At the University of Paris a research team led by physicist
Alain Aspect performed what may turn out to be one of the
most important experiments of the 20th century. You did not hear
about it on the evening news. In fact, unless you are in the
habit of reading scientific journals you probably have never
even heard Aspect's name, though there are some who believe his
discovery may change the face of science.
Aspect and his team discovered that under
certain circumstances subatomic particles such as electrons are
able to instantaneously communicate with each other regardless
of the distance separating them. It doesn't matter whether they
are 10 feet or 10 billion miles apart. Somehow each particle
always seems to know what the other is doing. The problem with
this feat is that it violates Einstein's long-held tenet that no
communication can travel faster than the speed of light. Since
traveling faster than the speed of light is tantamount to
breaking the time barrier, this daunting prospect has caused
some physicists to try to come up with elaborate ways to explain
away Aspect's findings. But it has inspired others to offer even
more radical explanations...
