Mostly the 'thing' is all about having our feelings (expressing them) without judging them. Feelings arise, and 'just are.' As are thoughts. They arise. They're like bubbles that rise to the surface. As we learn not to identify with them, they just pass along. Glad you're continuing to enjoy the blog! Warmly, Wayne Glad to hear… both from you, and how you are doing.

I am doing just fine! I had to go through that sorting it all out process but I stuck with it and it's OK. Nothing bad nothing good just sitting in the middle slowly making plans and just seeing what's going on. I got out of the drama because I really don't resonate with that anymore. Sure stuff comes up but I don't let it affect me like before. I am still on my own and got over the hump of being sad, depressed then mad. Now I am just sort of in the now... Anyway, just wanted to respond back and thank you for the great insights I get from your website. Hangin in there Margaret Hi

I think falling into old habits is pretty common, and the very best we can get to is noticing, stopping ourselves, and returning to "centre." And that process seems to get easier (and quicker) with time. Thanks for you r comment. Warmly, with metta, Wayne Hi Steve,

Your blog has really got me thinking, and acting differently. I find I easily fall back into old patterns but your regular entries help to get back on track. Thanks very much. Another great article.
