    Hi,

    I finished Day 2 of the program. Lots of reading on this step. It was starting to get a little long for me. Since I've read a lot about TMS before, I was kind of struggling to stay interested, but I started to feel like I might miss something important if I didn't pay attention. I think I re-read a few paragraphs of the article on St Providence website because I'd get to the end and realize I had no idea what I'd just read.

    When I got to the questions about anger and sadness, I very easily came up with something to write. I feel like there are a lot of thoughts to pull from that cause either anger or sadness. We'll see where this all takes me as I move along in the program. Wish me luck!

    Heh... I think it's completely fine to skip some parts of some readings (especially in the early days, where much of the material is review) if you've already read a TMS book or two. The program is designed survey a wide variety of different approaches, getting people to try a number of things that they wouldn't normally try, but when it comes to reviewing the basics for someone like yourself, that doesn't at all feel like cutting a corner.

    Perhaps we should make a special version of the program for people who have already read a book or two and just need a refresher... Right now, our hands are full, but with our new web site, we really have no limitations on how much we can add, and my hope, in five years, is to have many different versions. It has been part of the plan all along, for example, to allow practitioners to make custom versions of the program under their own names that they leave up on the wiki for anyone to try. Likewise, if someone has their own idea how to make the program better, they can do the same thing, as long as they leave it up on the wiki and allow others to build their own versions off of what they've created.

    Anyway, good luck, and keep us updated!

    Edit: Oh, and for anyone else reading this, Enrique just finished Day 2 of the following program:

    I'm pulling for you Enrique! I think that you found the reading hard is interesting. But you stuck with it (Bravo!) and NOW you have something to write about! Keep at it. I certainly hope you find the answers you seek. To me, the story sounds really scary for a young boy your age (at the time) so I think by writing - you'll dig this up.

    Keep at it - even though you've done all that reading!
