I have been exploring the notion that my belief system just may produce perceptions that are different from those that people around me have, for a few weeks now. It's one thing to be exposed to the idea, which I have been for decades, but yet another to actually practice it. Look for an issue that you see differently from someone you have a close enough relationship with, to be able to say: We sure think differently about that! BTW, I look forward to the new Audiobook. As always, your post provide me with relevant food for thought.

So many people today are quite willing to commit to a particular action and are happy to receive whatever benefit obtains. However, if something goes amiss, they try to avoid any responsibility at all. The point you make about 'communication' is particularly appropriate in todays world where we can communicate with others thousands of miles away, in a matter of seconds. Reminds me of the proverb, "Look before you leap" (it might be your last leap and you have only yourself to blame). Hi Bob,

There are three major approaches to viewing responsibility. The one you use will determine what you see. I will dig out some notes. Thank you for the exact item I needed today! Bob,
