“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

For one thing, the physical preparations for such a change have occurred, or are in the process of occurring.. To some extent you have taken his progress, recognizing it for what it is, as an “opportunity,” or rather as an opportune time to tackle some of your own problems. There is quite a bit involved here.

In the past at times you did get various symptoms when Ruburt began to improve, and because of his lack of confidence and the state of his beliefs, he backtracked. On some of those occasions your symptoms were the reflection of certain unresolved fears of your own, for, as you know, along the way Ruburt’s condition spoke to some extent for both of you.

This time, however, Ruburt continues to improve. Both of you needed that assurance. Beside that, Ruburt was able to help you to some degree—while before you felt that he could not because of his concentration upon his own problems.

You made some comments very important to him—further illuminating how his past beliefs colors his thoughts, so that he looked at the worst side of the given picture. You understood not feeling well at times, the difficulties he had been up against. Whole areas of communication were cleared, areas pertinent to your current situation.

You decided to take the focus point in a determination to rid yourself of the underlying causes once and for all. I realize only too well that what I say can often appear very simplistic. Generally, underlined four times, suicides do not appreciate, for example, for whatever reasons, the quality of life, but set up demands as to what life should be. They require a perfection that life itself never delivers. To whatever extent you place demands upon life, or others—to that extent you will cut down on your options and experience difficulties. Life does not perform on demand.

You are learning. If you honestly trust life and your situation in it, all seeming problems disappear. I say this time and time again. (Very heartily:) Now I bid you a fond good evening.
