So how did Mary become unstuck?

When Mary became stuck she became very irritable and impatient. She started to rush herself out of this stuck state in order to stay focused.  However the more she rushed the deeper she got into her stuck state.

With some facilitation, Mary discovered that she could stay focused by playing more in her life (Mary was taking life too serious).

Playing more

Mary could play and stay focused in many ways. Perhaps the simple and most exciting way was to recall a pleasant memory. Mary quickly and easily recalled the time when she was 15 years old and she stole her father’s car.

Pleasant memory

This memory helped Mary to stay focused while regaining her self-confidence and patients. Play for Mary now meant stealing her father’s car and she could find this awesome memory instantly. In her playing state Mary found the answer to her stuck state.

So what is the moral of the story?

A stuck state is merely an opportunity to stay focused. life lessons are usually presented to you as “road blocks.” Now you can choose to play (find a past pleasant memory). Recalling this memory will allow you to receive answers to your stuck state.

Let me explain.

Mary met a partner who had a wonderful “quality of kindness”. This kindness look like her solution to all stressful situations or so she thought. Mary admired this quality and eagerly wanted to experience this “quality of kindness”.

Ultimate solution

Mary thought that this quality could be accomplished as easily and instantly as swiping a credit card. She expected that this would be herultimate solution of stress relief to her relationship challenges. Mary’s expectation of the “quality of kindness” as the solution to her relationship challenges soon faded away because of other factors.

Other Factors

You see there were other factors to consider. One of these factors was behavior. Mary noticed that there were other behaviors that she did not like because they created stressful situations. She also was not prepared to accept her partner’s shortcomings.

After many years of disappointing relationships Mary finally had a profound understood that in order for her to experience this “quality of kindness” and stress relief, she first had to find it within herself.

Secondly she needed to accept her own shortcomings.

So what is the moral of the story?

The “quality of kindness” is found inside you and there is no need to go looking outside yourself creating more stressful situations while looking for stress relief.

Consequently, communication broke down and Mary got real angry (like a force to be reckoned with, all bent out of shape, pushing an upset apple cart).

This anger was so profound that it created physical discomforts and sleepless nights. Finally Mary did a reality check and discovered that all she had to do was to express her feelings (tell her partner what she needed).

So what is the moral of the story?

Getting angry only has negative affects on your health. Simply expressing or communicating what you need from you partner can be the cure for your physical discomforts and sleepless nights.
