Hi everyone,

In the past several months I've been going through some funks while trying to make personal developments. Basically I'm trying to get rid of a lot of baggage, return to the woman I was born to be, pursue endeavors that have always been important, learning to accept myself... I got tired of asking the I Ching the same old questions, so I simply said. "How am I doing?" I got 43 changing to 1. Would anyone like to weigh in on what this means?

Thanks much :bows:

Sue

Seems to be illustrating your changing attitude (being tired of asking the same q's) as a positive breakthrough! Changing to the creative seems great - suggests a new strong and stable mindset which can be like your springboard to create from, as an individual - 'the woman you were born to be' - in control and not so susceptible to being influenced by outside forces :)

I sure hope so :-) The endeavors I mentioned are in fact creative ones - writing and music. I've always been afraid to pursue them because of fear of failure, obviously very counterproductive. I've been taking writing and music comp classes to learn the science behind the subjects.

I have also started seeing my partner in a different light, taking note of his habits that now really go against my grain. I guess I put myself down so much the last few years that I sat there and took it all.

Thanks so much for your input, Em Ching.

It's good to get the ball rolling. When it comes to creative pursuits I think it's just about getting into the habit - Picasso said 'When inspiration comes I want it to find me working'.
And hope you can turn the tables with your partner with your new found confidence - or at least make him realise!
