Living a lie

The last few weeks have been among the most intense in my life. After few weeks of the seminar. I don't remember crying so many times in my life. I wanted to talk about all this with lot of people.....anyways in last few days have shared some of the things with Gary, Anki, Puneet, Mamta n Madonna and will talk about the rest too. Well yes I think she's the one who can understand all this but right now don't feel its the right time to take so much of her time.

I can get more out of life if I get in touch with my senses and feelings (and others by really listening) 4. When I rebel against being controlled - I'm still being controlled since I'm still not acting autonomously. 5. I don't need to be right all the time.
