I was there too (Hi !!!! hugssssssss) and I wonder if I can really

talk about it yet in any way that makes sense. Perhaps that's because I am

beyond tired! Perhaps it was so profound that it cannot be described. Or

perhaps I have lost my words -- my identification as a writer -- for awhile.

( announced to the group at one point, referring to me, " She's a

brilliant writer. " The way she said it, it sounded -- to me anyway -- like

that was the worst thing to be! I believe she was referring to my mind, the

way I use words to manipulate and to create something that isn't true for me.)

I can tell you that, upon coming home, rather than feeling my usual relief at

being in a familiar place, I felt it was not the place I'd left. There was

little that felt comfortable or familiar about it. But that was fine.

Also, rather than feeling overwhelm at the many tasks before me and all the

" catching up " I needed to do, I've just been plowing through the piles in a

very efficient manner, which is not my usual state of affairs!

Things simply seem to be in flow. I'm not blissed out or feeling especially

transformed. In truth The School seems like a dream now. And it is, because

it's a story of the past. Yet it appears to live within me as me...and I

believe that's what I went there for.

I would recommend The School to anyone who really wants to know themselves,

not just to those interested in facilitating. I did things I never thought

I'd do in my life. I found out that I believed in stories that I didn't even

realize I had in my repertoire -- stuff that simply does not serve me and

that I don't need anymore. (In fact I have this urge to throw away lots of

clutter, to match the inner state.)

And I discovered that everyone is me. It can be no other way.

I'd even like to attend again because I realize this is just the tip of the

iceberg.

Love,

Carol S.
