Today my houseguest left to move into her own space. It’s a happy day for her and for me, but not one of ‘relief’; rather, my feelings are of personal satisfaction and happiness that I was able to complete my personal COMMITMENT . I’m a much better person in most every way! It’s sort of like I’ve been on a retreat for these past 7 weeks.
I don’t think I have ever been so consistently and deliberately authentic with another person. We had determined we had to interact this way in order to keep our open communication on the same page. Believe me, folks, if you have the opportunity or desire to make a positive difference in your own life, take it from me, there’s a stack of rewards from your effort that comes to you.
My son will be arriving within a couple of weeks and he and a friend will spend the night and then return home. ln mid-December he will return for an extended stay.He has his own rig with living accommodations. I am looking forward to his visit because I have the same COMMITMENT in mind and already I am swirling with ideas of how I can be, helpful, considerate, understanding, compassionate and fair-minded. I always have love in my heart, but as I have experienced from time-to-time sometimes something can go haywire and off track.
I intend to use my entire experience of these past weeks…what a training session, with first-hand knowledge to rely upon.
One thing’s for sure, it is I who must carry the torch to success!
Blessed Be. To All Be Blessed.

Great blog
So perfectly articulated and it was a huge win for me that left me with a remarkable paradigm shift in self awareness and self worth. This was an amazing and wonderful achievement for us both Kaye, you are an incredibly authentic human BEING and we have just begun. Kaye you inspire everyone you come in contact with and you leave no stone unturned. You’re scary in a coachy kind of way. You called me out on my shit and you didn’t stop until you knew I GOT IT. Your Beingness and honesty with me works and I loved/hated it at times. Keep on keepin on Kaye; we need you! And geez your strength and stamina, you’re pitching in to help me move my stuff; THANKS KAYE! Nighty night. I loved this that you wrote!
Thank you for your words, Bev. So much more came out of this “commitment experiment”, than we had considered, right? Going into it, we were facilitating your circumstances and I was an avenue for you to set yourself right. I guess we’d say, you were in a pickle! 🙂 What I thought so interesting after the fact, is that unknowingly I was giving myself an opportunity to grow beyond my experience thus far, and I was also able to look at myself in a different way. I know we succeeded with our intention because we both had struck a bargain; however, now I am faced with pulling something similar off with my personal one-sided ‘agreement or commitment’ that I intend to have for everyone who comes in my path. The burden of proof is totally on me now and this seems daunting at times. I see the key as my own commitment which must surmount circumstances. I see it as a renewed partnership with God as I go forward, in that I need such great strength as I ‘change my heretofore tactics of how to live a peaceful life on this earth. Even as I write this I feel another kind of strength and exuberance about it. It is a realization of my power and intention and desire for ultimate Peace. And I think that I have made a shift when it comes to commitment to anything/anyone in my life…not to be taken lightly, no matter what decision is at hand.
We’ve had the chance to be the ‘observer’ of our choices because we had an endgame to fulfill. We ‘bit our tongues’ sometimes in deference to our intended result. In other words, we both stopped, took a deep breath, and thought first, before we may have done something to tear the fragile ‘bond’ we had created under the circumstances. This proved to me that I was capable of taking ‘the road less traveled’ by me in the past.This is a new dimension that I look at because there was no people-pleasing to making things work, there was no placating. It was civil communication and thoughtful performance out of choice. I hope I can be this thoughtful and considerate about my actions and choices from hereon out.

Every time I read this I see something that I have missed in my previous visit.
