Managing expectations is a big part of it. Within that, setting realistic expectations is an important piece. PEACE!

Thank you Rocky and Charlene!!!!!!! If I may share, I had a dream which got me to look at the PRESSURE we were under as wow's and way corpses. But/and your reminder Rocky re: how vp decreed/pontifically asserted that if we only read the Bible and twi materials, we would reap Great Benefits... This really hit me this am. What a mental POWER GRAB!!! OMG!!!!! How naive etc etc I was. What a devious way to get the doctrinal/emotional/spiritual box to close even further around the unsuspecting prey... I allowed myself to be lured into the trap, and then agreed to shut the door TIGHT, even locking it myself, and agreeing to only eat the stinking rotten food that was tossed my way... O M G.

I'll post it in a couple other places here today.

Socks, your phrase "external contact" jumps out at me. In my Way experience, the purpose of engaging with people who were not involved in The Way was to recruit them into it. Not be influenced by them to the point that you'd leave The Way or try to change it. Since there were thousands of us involved over many years, there are probably many variations on this theme of "external exposure." Here's a link to what I wrote about things to consider when evaluating Way stories. REVISED Speaking of "Way" Stories ... | Charlene L. Edge (charleneedge.com) Cheers!
