Dear Connor Michael:

You wrote: “I am slowly but surely edging away from what I was raised on… it is a scary thing.. something bigger I can feel is in this lifestyle and mindset”-

because it is scary to change our core beliefs, take it easy, slowly. Don’t aim at a change, be willing to not proceed, to stop any time. No pressure. If something big takes place in your mindset and your lifestyle, let it happen at a slow place, don’t rush it.

And do  post anytime, sharing any particular thought you have, any feeling, a life situation you would like help with. I will be glad to reply to you.

* I learned from my readings in the past that when I believed there was truth in what I read in a book, that I assumed that everything in that book was true. But I was wrong. Not everything in any of the books I read was true.

Dear Connor Michael:

When we learn something that does not require unlearning, it is much easier. Unlearning core beliefs, what we used to believe is true, is an emotional process and so it is difficult. Is this your problem you referred to in your last sentence above, the emotional difficulty in unlearning?

Dear Connor Michael:

I don’t think that it is necessary to have contradiction hanging over one’s head. It may be misunderstandings and incorrect information that are responsible for those contradictions.

Would you like to list these contradictions you referred to?

I would like to read your list and respond to it when I am back to the computer in about fifteen hours.
