‘I am determined to see.’
The exercises for today consists in reminding yourself throughout the day that you want to see. Today’s idea also tacitly implies the recognition that you do not see now.

Whenever I encountered bullying, or lying, or aggressive behaviour today, I found it enormously helpful to repeat the lesson ‘I am determined to see,‘ and what I saw was naked fear, to which I tried to send love. Wasn’t always as loving a I could have been. On a scale of 1-10, perhaps 7. But then, I am work in progress.
