Steve, I liked that in your article you reminded the reader that it would be more accurate to call subjective reality a perspective, rather than a belief.

I think the use of those words is powerful for a few reasons, not least that it's easier for people to identify with what they call a belief, and to remain unattached to a "perspective" and therefore be more free to use it as a tool when it comes in useful.

I also enjoy the tone you manage -- I'm not sure exactly how you do it -- of confiding in your reader, "this is what works for me, and I'm happy to talk about it with you, AND you are free to take it or leave it." It's a friendly tone! And it contrasts starkly with a "This is The Truth" approach.

Your ability to generate a space of freedom in your writing is inspiring. Thanks!

Lots of love,
Angela
