Blog Post Idea...

Steve,

I would love to see you write an article about how to face a character attack or group resistance. Perhaps you've already done so.

The timing seems ideal based on the SBI thread. Also, I'm growing spiritually and am surprised at the resistance I'm getting from people I care about. The subject seems universal.

Great suggestion. I'm sure Steve can think of other areas where he's faced an attack on his character recently...

I've been very grateful for the way he's taking on our conventional ideas of relationships.

Yes - I was also amazed to see that when I became interested in personal development, and Tai Chi - everybody looked at me like I was some weird bird Except for, of course, those who had heard of Tai Chi - but those were only 2 or 3 people. Most not only have never heard of it, as they have never heard of personal development. Even my parents have never actually asked me direct question about my approach or what I want to convey to people, what I've accomplished, etc - and they're the most open minded parents I ever heard of. Maybe thinking about what I do puts them face to face with their own situation that greatly needs improvement. It's kind of sad what happens when people refuse to improve, to grow, or to understand.

Steve touched on some of this in a blog post titled Social Drag.
