Hello All,

I just wanted to take some time today to express my gratitude to my spiritual partners. About a week ago, I had an interaction with a family member that triggered major core frightened parts of my personality. I had thoughts of being rejected and betrayed. It was probably some of the most intense pain I have had in years. During this time, I tried to remember to create authentic power, but kept finding myself stuck in anger, blame and self-pity. I often think that since I have been learning about and creating authentic power for a long time that I can do it myself and don’t have to bother anyone with my ‘problems’. But this time I did something different. Twice during the week, I reached out to spiritual partners for support. Both times, my spiritual partners were able to support me in taking my focus off the trigger and noticing what I could learn about myself, where I was attached to this relationship, where I was feeling superior and judgmental, etc. They did not caretake or sympathize or agree with my frightened parts. I am glad that I challenged the frightened part of my personality that thinks I must always go it alone. A week ago, I wouldn’t have thought it possible that I could change my perspective, but I have because of my intention to change, of course, but also because of the loving support of my spiritual partners.

Love,

David
