Anyone still on this? After last week I had to take some time off. Something I have learned is about over analyzing and intellectualizing. It's one of the resistence to change behaviors that you can have.
I remembered Lucinda talking about it in previous tapes but I never could "get it". Well I think I may have got it now (maybe).
I ask my husband what he thought it meant because I was struggling with it. He said without any hesitation "that's when you read into something, more than it really is". Your trying to find a deeper meaning to the question or situation, etc.
I can see now where I have done this. I do it alot when I talk to people. Or when I'm faced with a decision to make. I will worry my self sick over things. To the point that I get so overwhelmed and I end up with anxiety.
Something else that I thought about the other day was....I have heard people say that when they got older. They stopped worry about what other people thought. It made me think about something Lucinda says in #12 about being mature(growing up) She also speaks of a friend who is termanly ill.
I have often wondered why...some people who are faced with something that is life changing can be so inspired about things.
I think it's because they see that their not promised tommorw. Just like someone who is getting older. They start to treasure there days more.
I know I'm talking in circles. It doesn't make alot of sense. I just know that I've got to learn to be more grateful for what I have. I take so maney things for granted. My health included. What I have is not termanal. I can change it....That is huge,amazing! We don't have to live like this. That is such a blessing!
I am so thankful that I'm "getting it". Lucinda is a wonderful person! I hope she knows how truely loved she is...by all of us.
