The final day of my training in Jackson was another great, albeit long one.  The overriding message (for me) of the week, to allow my essential self to uncover itself.   I am a good (great) teacher and person; yet I am wearing a lot of layers, covering those qualities up at times.  If I soften, that goodness will reveal itself. 

At moments, during this past week, I observed that happening.  It takes practice, but it is possible.  That was a BIG lesson for me.

I was also reminded to teach from my heart and to remember (and honor) my teachers.  Part two of that reminder is easy for me; the first - teaching from my heart - is harder.  I love technical, it's safe; the heart is risky.  I know now, however, it's do-able. 

Three powerful messages, don't you think?

Now back to routine.  Got home late, slept a bit, up and into Monday's routine.  I am keeping this short.  First, after all the study and being a bit tired, it's hard to put thoughts to paper in an understandable way.  This was a week I won't soon forget. 

Enjoy your week,
