Thanks for the reminder Sandra.Yeah I think it is important to debunk the myths around perfection and liberation in regards to not only our teachers but ourselves. It's also a very good reminder to not bypass our emotions but to feel them deeply on this journey. A wise authentic teacher will do this and it seems yours has. We need more like this.

Yeah, agreed. We should always be consistent and perseverant in our process of healing and self-improvement, instead of being too content and setting certain limits. Such a process should be viewed and accepted as lifelong and continuous.

Though of course, it's also crucial that we be proud of and be kind as well as compassionate to ourselves as we improve and achieve certain milestones throughout this journey.

Why can't I be believed how much pain I am in from fibromyalgia. Doctors play God and will send you to he'll due to their hubris rather than to break down and truly help. NancyEliz Maldonado

I totally agree, Sandra, self development takes a lifetime because the circumstances of your life are always changing so you never really do "solve" anything! I did do one big thing that I needed to do and have needed to do for a long time. I ended a long-standing friendship with someone whose go to response to anything is instant anger. I finally realilized that sne was being mean to me but in very subtle ways. This last month her meanness was not subtle and I finally had had it (I am not a person who is led by and fed by anger), so I told her I was not going to see her again. Of course her response was to go instantly to anger so that really confirmed that I had done the right thing. It was something I had to finally realize and once I did, that was it. I have felt so much better since I did that! Self developement happens when I how it happens.
