     Notice events and relationships that                      Anyone who
        repeat and recognize their importance                     perceives his
        in the minutest detail. Events that
        repeat can be similar to dreams that                      shadow and his
        are bringing us messages in symbolic                      light simultaneously
        form. Our dreams too will sometimes                       sees himself from
        repeat which means our unconscious is                     two sides and thus
        doubling up on the urgency of what we
        need to know about ourselves.                             gets in the middle.
        Like is constantly attracting like, or
        as some would say, vibrating at the
        same frequency. Your shadow dance
        is destined to play itself out whether
        you are with that person or the next.
        Like it or not, that is the only way the
        unconscious can get us to become
        conscious. Consciousness will be the
        result of reflecting on these experiences
        instead of just reacting to them.
        It takes all the courage we can muster to              It’s almost an irreverence and disrespect
        change, which for most of us is painfully  to ignore the feedback that our inner
        slow, but it can and does occur. I was                 Self is giving us as to how we are doing.
        once asked, “Do you really think we                    As the Taoists say, “When one lacks
        change?” then he postulated, “I don’t                  a sense of awe, there will be disaster.”
        believe we do. We just keep repeating                  This is exceedingly difficult because

        we become more aware, but change is a                  not pleasant. When we are projecting
        very slow process.”                                    our shadow, they are for the most part
                                                               unwanted, objectionable, inferior and
        I don’t want to live in a world where                  suppressed aspects of our being that we

        our striving is for naught. I believe we               is deep work, and you will be changed
