woceyes, that's definitely an interesting take on my experiences so far. It could be that I am becoming less and less affected by what media deems beautiful/attractive and what i actually want. But we all know that what we really want isn't so easy. Sometimes what i get becomes something that I no longer want.
The GK, good to hear that you've come to this way of feeling! I think the way this program works is that it works on different portions of ourselves at different rates. What I noticed is that my neediness is much less apparent now than it has been before in stage 2. I may not have been as needy in stage 2 as i have been before i started (in fact, definitely not as needy since i started PERIOD). Keep at it, i'm curious to see how this program will affect you!
So today I had a discussion in the car with my father on the way to school. I'm attending massage therapy school (not Masseuse or masseur school, there's a difference). Turns out all that frustration he's been trying to explain finally made sense to me. I always thought he was trying to communicate that he has expectations that we should automatically attend to, but i now understand what he is trying to do is raise a man out of both my brother and i. I finally got the message, and i think it partially has to do with the effects of stage 6, i see what a real man has to do which is just keep moving forward and taking action where it is needed on his own. Even if it includes trivial house chores, things need to be done so things will get done. no questions necessary.
That's probably the first notable thing i've gathered out of stage 6. I have a feeling things will be more refined as time goes on.
Still though, anyone else have any takes on what's going on with the pickiness? Woceyes explanation is certainly plausible and i do believe it, i also want to hear more interpretations of what may be going on.
