Ruburt’s desire to walk properly and see normally is his own, yet it is also the desire of that greater nature from which his existence springs. He is beginning to release that desire, after being afraid of doing so for fear that his full attempts would not work. In your present circumstances, it was more or less inevitable, generally speaking, that when he began to release that desire, the fears that had earlier impeded its release would also come to the fore.
He began to creatively consider what he would do, and then out of habit projected, at times, his present circumstances, so that they seemed to contradict his hopes.

The worry about the time element is the result of your present concern over whether or not you are affecting Framework 2 properly. You are affecting it properly, but your worry causes impediments.
Ruburt’s playing with the cat was of great benefit. Your Tom and Jerry shows are another. A good drama on television helps. Riding is excellent now. You need, both of you, that change of scenery, and familiarity with the countryside, and touch of your world’s bustle. Driving downtown is stimulating to Ruburt, but he should not feel out of it at such times, or concentrate upon the comparison between his present and the desired state. Have him tell you his fantasy today of the motel, and his thoughts about it. You must begin to change your mode of thinking, but it will automatically change as you remember what I said about creativity, and stop worrying, both of you. Creative thought is the mode of thought that most clearly approximates Framework 2’s mode of organization, and the nature of the universe.
