Become

QUESTION: I must give you
ome sentence or so about
myself before I ask my
question. I am in my mid-
thirties:and since I was about
19 I have been on a search
for the fulfiliment of my life.
For several years | have felt
richly rewarded because |!

5:

have been aware that I have
become more and more
aware of the meaning of life
and have become _ very
happily better acquainted
with my real self. I have had
the experience of “knowing”
that I was a part of love and
truth and joy and meaning.

i was not conceited about

it all, but extremely grateful |

and forward looking. Then
the bottom fell out. Now I'm
ready to ask my question.
How do I get going again?
For reasons I can’t fathom |
suddenly became dull and
listless and negative and

ask hayden stewart

depressed. So much that had
cheered me about myself
and about life just seemed to
disappear. [ve been in a
“dry and weary land” for
nearly two months now.

What do I do? How do |!
snap out of it? Have you got
any formula for the recovery
of a person who has known
the abundant life and now is
a hopeless blah?

STEWART: Sorry, I have no
formula’ for And

he change you want to see ha

dynamic for you as you say,
you will remember that no
one had a formula for you
then either. It was all within
you. And it still is. You don't
need to search for something
from outside yourself.
Shelley said,

Rather consists in opening
outa way

Whence the imprisoned
splendor may escape,

Than in effecting entry for a
light

pen

Receive yourself lovingly
right now, while you feel like
a hopeless blah. Then you'll
be able to ask yourself what
changes you want within
yourself. One of these days,
you'll “know” it is your time
to “be the change you want
to see happen.”

At that time you will be
ready to emerge again. But
as you do, be grateful for the
dry and weary land that was
home for you at a time of
nurturing. All the resources
of your dynamic days are

QUESTION: Some of my

friends are shoplifting sort of that are shoplifting don’t a few kids who are not of BC's
just for the fun of it. They want my other friends to creative enough to think of a ec: 8 ® a WIZ ZELUNS

things but just going for the
kicks of getting away with
swiping something. Well
now the hard part is that

they are trying to suck me _ Iam too. But what can a guy Sometimes it takes an awful 250 West Soth nyenue to visit her & Julie

shouldn't do it. So I just
don't turn up bat then I get
the chicken treatment all the
time. They call me chicken
all the time and they tell my
other friends ['m_ chicken
and they don’t know why I'm

chicken because my friends

that that’s what I'm chicken
about.
So [ve got everyone

thinking ['m chicken. I guess

me chicken.

STEWART: I'll bet some of
the guys and girls who are in
on the shoplifting have been
suckered into it because they
did not want the chicken
treatment. Which takes

more guts? To go along with

ripping off someone else, or
to stand up to a bunch of
your friends who are yelling
“Chicken!’’ at you?

It is termbly hard to stand
up against your friends’
efforts to run your life, but
the guy who does it is no
chicken believe you me. My
hat’s off to you. Hang in
there!
