      There is one quote that really touched the point in my heart from
      Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai. “The Zohar was born
      through love. Hence, its rediscovery in our time
      will be made possible only out of love.”

      Let us love more as if I lives depended on it
      Thank you for the lessons
      Amen
      Much love
      Sean

      I have been overwhelmed with this portion of reading and in particular learning from Professor Wellman. I even cried when he stated about loving others as oneself. I believe that I have done that since a child. My most wonderful and wise parents taught us all of that and I have been true to their teachings. I was tested with the first husband who was a Beast (and to clarify, I do not mean this as an insult.) He truly harmed me and almost killed me after the divorce. However, he did not break me and I have not hated him. It was easier to blame his mother. Sometime after the divorce, this hate brewed in me like fire. I could not sleep. I could not do anything but have hate in my heart and soul. I had a very nice friend; a doctor who I finally told him about my hate. He told me that I needed to pray for her. I laughed. Two weeks past and I thought very much about his advise. I began to pray for her. I cannot remember how many days past. Once day I suddenly realized that I did not hate her anymore. I was free. That has been the only person in my life who stirred up so much hate in me and she also tried to kill me. I have been confused at some lessons in the beginning. However, I read everything and watch all the videos. At the present, I am going through a vicious psychological abuse from my son’s wife for two years. Because I am disabled, he brought me from San Antonio, TX to Ashburn, Virginia to live with him. He had all the divorce set up and from one day to another, he accepts not to divorce. Hence, after all the abuse an assaults, I found myself betrayed and again and even worse, the hate fired up when he told me he was not going to divorce her. I have to grandchildren, 9 and 6 years old who have witnessed their mother’s behavior. I do not remember which video it was from Professor Wellman in which he talks about “love thy neighbor as thyself.” But he also stated that one needed to also love they enemies. That is when it struck on me that if I wanted to reach The Creator, I could not pick and choose. I cried because this woman truly harmed me and has sequestered me in the bedroom where I have spent living for two years. I am sorry to tell such a large story. I just want to thank everyone who is teaching us. As of this morning, I no longer feel hate. Her and I will need to speak about moving on, but I want the conversation to be one of make it very clear that I am in peace. Hence, yes, I forgive her and this is what finally allowed me to understand how to get past the Screen. Thank you for you patience in this long story.

      I tried to be more in my heart and less in my head while listening, that felt good; just be in a relaxing mode. The words are familiar and I could see the Sefirots in front of me.

      I’ve just read that area a few weeks ago. It was nice to hear Tony speak it. I’ve drawn out the Tree of Life on several papers and it was helpful to look over the Sefirot while Tony was speaking

      It was easier to stay focused on wanting to be changed with the English version for me. The Hebrew was lovely, but I found myself getting distracted. I have no idea why. Thank you for this exercise.
