Have a short memory, beloveds
Reading this Letter again more than a year later, I can see that there are real changes. I clearly remember the frustration at the discrepancy of understanding quite well what was being said and feeling unable to put it into practice. How angry I was at myself for not being able to follow God's advice! The amazing insight, making me laugh, is that Even God does not have a magic formula. As I realize now, that was what I hoped for, thinking that God should be able to express things in a way that enables me to, well, apply the cure for all that ails me. A fast cure, please.
As it turns out, there was a magic formula. It said, "Long for it"; it said, "Lean there." Apparently I was able to do that, even without much hope, even despairing, and so a shallow insight could deepen a little. Still wishing for a fast cure, I find that a slow one – not being tormented by toxic thoughts quite as much any more – is nice as well.
Rough rule of thumb: Walking away from thoughts that hurt you takes a year, even if you have the best coach there is.

A link in the Daily inspirational email I receive from Neale Donald Walsch, took me to a Heavenletter site of such generosity, such brilliance, and such comfort that I wept. Days ago I had a dream about a Tsunami wave on the beach, and then, as I read a Heavenletter letter from the Cosmic Generator, I read of a Tsunami wave of love that will sweep over the world.
