Well good buddy most of us in this class are “less” than eight years
old when it comes to this type of “Transformative Work” we are about
trying to wake up to in here and out in our every day lives.

>John would be my favorite teacher.

…and a good student you promise to be as well, from where I stand
anyway.

>I would play pranks on Sally and Deirdre.

Man do I relate to this one, but after being around here for a while,
I’ve came to see that they are truly great gals to have the privilege
of being in my life at any level.

>I'd probably compete with Jeff for John's positive regard.

Yes I “completely understand” this one. But the real kicker is that
Jeff has very little (if any) of this type tendency that I’ve been able
to see. And here’s the real kicker, this has absolutely nothing to do
with his being anyway superior, but only depicts that his major
personality is of a different type than my on.

>And I would spend a lot of time doing my homework!

Right on brother! Me too.

But the best part is you have managed to “SIDE STEP” your natural
personality tendencies by acknowledging these here without presenting
any stingers. Bravo, and another great mindful warriors job you have
done once more.
