Hi John,

Patterns clearly proven to be false exist no more; they're gone.  It's the ones that 
sneak up on me and take me unaware that can cause problems (karma: live again).
I don't consider letting old patterns run loose dynamic.  I did daily stream of 
consciousness journaling for twelve years.  It was mostly psychological garbage
patterns, not so pretty, not so creative, definitely not interesting.   There no-mind;
that's better.  My husband and I would sometime joke about working on a piece 
of music (me just piddlely little studies)with such intent that we'd practically, and 
sometimes actually, be drooling.  When I'm painting, sometimes, everything goes 
but the painting.  

It can be fun destroying patterns.  Another one hits the dust!  It can also be frustrating, and 
painful.  Sour relationship patterns can be brutally difficult to destroy.  Old expectations?
I would have loved to be one of those lucky ones that get all patterns busted in a moment,
but it hasn't worked that way with me.  Even though I understand perfectly on the 
intellectual level, old patterns are persistent and I must chip away slowly.  "Oh, I love 
my ring, it has so much meaning and love attached to it." -NOT!    Not this.  Not that.
