particularly inspirational either to me in my individuation
journey or my clients. Enjoy!
Autobiography in Five Short Chapters
by Portia Nelson
I was first introduced to this short
passage in James Hollis's book
The Middle Passage: From Misery to Meaning in Midlife.
(Inner City Books, 1993) It reflects the process we go
through as we strive to be conscious and reminds us that we
do have a certain amount of free will in working with our
fate.

The
Rainmaker - Chinese Story
The story was apparently told to Carl Jung by Richard
Wilhelm. Robert Johnson has written a nice article on
the Relationship of the Inner and Outer using this story on
Inward Light.
