Ruburt read it, and is reading it, looking for those feelings that allowed vast improvements to occur at the time—and for once he did not look into the past with his usual self-disapproval. To some extent he began to recapture some of those feelings. With what he has learned, and with that emotional touchstone, he has indeed made good strides, which are quite obvious for both of you to see. .
I have given you endless material on the importance of significances, and how you build upon them according to your focus. In that one area of Ruburt’s condition, you focus upon the improvements that occur. You do not compare the present situation with a past one in a detrimental manner. You live in the present. All of the recent material I have given you has enabled you to see some considerable results because for a time you have managed to give yourselves some peace of mind—at least enough to move ahead.
Ruburt recaptured that sense of acceleration, at least momentarily. In Personal Reality I stressed many of these points for our readers, but you yourselves forget to apply them in that one important area of your lives. The last sessions managed to rearouse your faith, but you yourselves must tend it, as indeed, Joseph, you tend your plants. Do not identify with what you think of as past failures. The point of power is in the present, and when you believe changes can occur, they do indeed happen.
