No, that's not true. When I think this, I'm annoyed that he seems so attached to his last name and that he needs specific attention of having his name spelled out completely or even partially with a last initial or nickname. It makes me think he's dumb for not being able to remember whether or not he was the Steve who wrote someting to Ros about affirmations the other day that would have sparked her post today. I wonder what's so scary to him about not knowing which Steve the post is written to. (Hmmm... this is making me wonder if the only reason I want to know things is because there's something scary about not knowing. I might look into that later.) So, yeah... I wonder if there's something scary about not knowing who the post is directed to. That puts me in his business for sure. Without the thought that he should know whether a message is for him or not, I'm back in my own business. It's not my business why he wants to know which Steve. Instead of thinking Steve is dumb for not remembering if he was the Steve who wrote the post to Ros, I see him as smart for knowing that he can get answers to his questions just by asking. That's a great lesson for me. Asking is harmless. TA> Steve should not know whether the message was directed at him. TA> Steve should wonder who the post was intended for.

I remember doing some Work on this before...and I'm glad that Steve has brought it up again because there's obviously still a charging in it for me. **Steve has to stop being attached to names that cause separation. No....not at all. It's totally his business, and it's exhausting for me to be in it. He's actually just a mirror for me right now so that I can see that I'm the one who sees names as being separating. TA> I should stop being attached to names that cause separation.

Guest guest Posted January 10, 2003 Report Share Posted January 10, 2003 I liked Mona better when she was funny, er, talked about hickeys....( " smile " ). Come to think, I like ME better when I am funny. Hmmmm Re: Steve In a message dated 1/10/2003 1:14:57 PM Pacific Standard Time, d_Tepet@... writes: > I should not be in Steve's business? Well, I should be in it when I am...and when I am, I notice that it's stressful. So I should be there until I'm not. I mean, Steve lives with Steve's business most of the time, I think. It must not be *that* bad. Unless...Steve is just as stressed out about being in his own business as I am about being in his business. That could get a little sticky. Hmmm... I think sometimes I'm stressed out about being in my own business. I wonder if it's really even possible to be in my own business? I sure as heck don't know what my business is. I'm just sitting here typing and really didn't even make a specific point to be doing it. Maybe *it* has business that I'm not fully aware of until *it* is doing it. And sometimes that involves *it* being in other people's business. Sounds circular to me...and it brings me to the thought that I don't *really* know anything. I really like that place...sometimes. : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 10, 2003 Report Share Posted January 10, 2003 " I like ME better when I am funny. " , Sounds like a wee bit of rejection of the serious, not funny, side of your sweet self.

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2004 Report Share Posted December 19, 2004 Steve, We were in Gainesville, Flordia at the Shands Hospital at U of Flordia back in March, April and May. I wish I would have known you lived there. Would have loved to meet . We live in St. 's, GA just across the Flordia state line off I-95............2 hours away. My husband is stationed here at the Kings Bay Submarine Base. I liked Gainesville, Florida alot. My younger son went to O2B kids every weekend for Parents Night Out. Take care, Donna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
