John Denver
“Werner Erhard epitomizes for me what it is to be a human being. It is through my experience of him that I have most completely come to know myself.”– John Denver
John Denver first became involved with est in 1973 when he was 30 years old. Many of his lyrics are tributes to the ideas and awareness he gained through his experiences of himself through est. John Denver, along with Werner Erhard and Robert Fuller, was one of the founding members of the Hunger Project, a global movement with a vision and commitment to end hunger by organizing the necessary leadership, training, and education.

I was very surprised my mother was involved in anything that made a person self-reflect; she always wants to pretend that whatever she did and does is perfect.
ReplyDeleteI just shut up!
ReplyDeleteOkay, I am asking you to tell me in numbers: month, and the day. I just figure 12:30, lunch, ER exit. I will put a post for each answer. I figure 2022, but 2023, if you want, otherwise, 2022. I will try and get you a phone, prepay and will put time on it. I have no cell phone yet, but will and let you know. I want to talk to you. I wish I knew how to get a phone to you.
ReplyDeleteWe need to get some things done and ready to get you free..
ReplyDeletePlease just let me know what I need to know, when you have the chance. A you still on track? I am scared I will mess it up somehow. Please, all I really want is for you is to be happy and safe. You owe me absolutely nothing; I love you. I don't know what to do; I am frightened for you.
ReplyDeleteI wish I could know you again. I want to leave it up to you, but I am hurting so much and I am worried you will just leave things as they are. I also am not sure about my health. I want to be able to hug you. It would be my blessing.
I feel lost.
ReplyDeleteI am tortured.
ReplyDeleteI don't want to lose you. I truly don't. My heart breaks every day and I don't know how much longer it will last. I have never loved anyone like you. You are a part of me. Let's get you safe.
ReplyDeletePlease decide upon a date.
ReplyDeleteWe need to get it right the first time, but also make a back up plan; which is why a cell phone is necessary..

ReplyDeleteAt some point, we will have to communicate better. Okay?
ReplyDeleteI don't know, perhaps you don't want to communicate at a better level, or ever see me?
ReplyDeleteI want to free you and be your support. Do you want that?
It is not possible for me to not love you. It would only be a matter of showing it, or not.
ReplyDeleteI hate this! You are missed with a pain that accompanies it, that could kill the toughest gladiator, but I manage to plod on.....I have no idea how, though.
ReplyDeleteThink carefully on it and give me the month number first and day second. I will figure a clear way to ask every so often. It needs to be clear and I will repeat it late in the night, with one change one to be careful. So, give me two different dates to be confusing. As long as we get it clear ourselves.
ReplyDeleteDid you have an acceptable day? I know being under captivity can never be wonderful, but I want to think you are at least okay. I sat outside for a few minutes, which I hardly ever do any more. I do need to walk; start soon. I get out of breath too much now. Also, taking some extra flesh off is always good.
ReplyDeleteI seem to be fading fast (sleepy), so may be gone soon, but popping back every so often. I didn't do much today, so I am ashamed, will improve tomorrow.
DeleteI really love hearing your voice! I am happy I can do it; it makes me feel closer to you. you could leave a small message for me.......
DeleteI do love you so.
ReplyDeleteI am starting an Etsy store to sell my stuff. https://www.etsy.com/your/shops/HavivaBoutique/onboarding/listings/create I am still in the process, so we shall see.
ReplyDeleteI don't want to lose you; especially to death. Do all you can to avoid it.
ReplyDeleteI am trying hard to get the money for the 22 and have you there too.
ReplyDeleteI feel sad that I am not as nice looking as I would want to be for you, but I feel like I know you on a higher lever than the usual things people expect, but I want you to have what makes you happy.
ReplyDeletei know I adore you no matter what. You just answer everything in me. I feel as if you are here with me, but I still ache with an incredible pain. I try to hang in there, because I must, but I cannot live a normal existence. I just shut down, so I wouldn't die of sadness, I guess. Some days, though, I think I may lose the battle. If I let the anger at them get to me; I think I would self destruct like a burned out star.

ReplyDeleteI hate to sound dramatic, but life is nothing without you. It is just the truth.
ReplyDeleteI love you my sweet darling.
ReplyDeleteThank you for keeping me in your mind. I am very grateful and so much in love.
ReplyDeleteI wish I could talk with you.....
ReplyDeletei wish it so much.
What do you get to do on a Saturday night? I would think that people who are at odds would get tired of just be sitting around doing nothing. I would get such joy from hearing you telling me things. I enjoyed every word, every look, every smile. I want that back.
ReplyDeleteGood night/morning! You are in my heart and soul.
ReplyDeleteYou are always with me.
ReplyDeleteEverything I do is for you.
ReplyDeleteLet me know when you see what I write to you. I am talking to my helper tomorrow; back what I say, okay? love.
ReplyDeleteIn no other work does Franz Kafka reveal himself as in Letters to Milena, which begins as a business correspondence but soon develops into a passionate but doomed epistolary love affair. Kafka's Czech translator, Milena Jesenska, was a gifted and charismatic twenty-three-year-old who was uniquely able to recognize Kafka's complex genius and his even more complex character. For the thirty-six-year-old Kafka, she was "a living fire, such as I have never seen." It was to Milena that he revealed his most intimate self and, eventually, entrusted his diaries for safekeeping.
