Tanja - it is always great to go on a journey with you and thanks also for the wonderful clip of "My Guitar Gently Weeps". What a remarkable rendition and amazing to see Dhani Harrison playing in the background. He looks so much like his father back in the 60s. I wonder what he is doing today? It may have been a transforming moment for him to play with these great stars. Prince's playing is quite remarkable and apparently effortless. A great way to think about transformation!
l suppose the key to transformation, as I was thinking about what lay behind your post and your story, is the realization that victimhood is the enemy of transformation. It is easy for us to be stuck in victimhood and somehow, transformation has to begin with a complete change in our thinking (interestingly it is the essence of the word repentance).
I like your three simple points and have written down your nice quote: "To begin a transformation, it is essential to know what your story actually is in order to navigate to something better and begin a new story. " I suppose that each of us need to be honest in our self-assessment. As I was thinking about the issues of transformation, I realized that you need to have been facing pain and difficulty to even have the sense of a need for transformation. So we are dealing with a complex series of issue but you have given us some great tips.Loved the butterfly photo!
Thank you, Reuben, for your valuable input. You are absolutely right that victimhood is the enemy of any form of transformation and I like the link to repentance. Again food for thought!
Having a butterfly sitting on your arm while you walk was an amazing experience. I first thouhgt it was hurt but after several kilometers it had apperently reached its destination and flew off.
