Good advice Al. I will send it where I sent Fudo's one about living impeccably one moment at a time. I know painfully was the wrong word -- but I didn't know how to say briefly my fear that if I cut off intellect too rapidly, there would be upheaval in my life that might be minimized with a more gradual approach. More concerning, though, is if I seem to outwardly change to others rapidly (such as my wife), I fear the shock would be stressful and "painful" for them. The practice itself definitely isn't painful -- its the practical side of the results which gives me pause. I suppose I will try to leave it as a fear, rather than intellectualize it ;) but encouragementin the right direction never hurts. Thanks again, Rod ------------------------ Yahoo!
