Pam L says "Trust on your part that their knowledge and
understanding of themselves is greater than your understanding of
them, that *even if* you don't understand why it is so important to
them, you will unconditionally accept that it just *is* and you are
willing to act accordingly. And when they trust that you will be
behind them *even if* in the end (i.e. after the conversation) you
don't understand their motivation, there seems to be a new level of
freedom in the relationship, a new level of give and take and trust
and patience that things will work out."

Here is Pam's web site, a wonderful and amazing site. http://www.livingjoyfully.ca/index.htm
I love Pam's quote so much, as i have seen how my trust in Kathrynn has brought about an amazing transformation in our relationship, in her relationship to her-Self, and in my relationship to my-Self. It truly is freeing!

That's my problem...I lack trust. I can't just trust that things will turn out all right (unless I'm too lazy to do something about it, of course). ;}
