Uncle#2 post Landmark Forum

My uncle before the Landmark Forum: would drink periodically. Sometimes until he's in a stupor and will have a reall downer moments for several days. It drove everyone absolutely crazy, especially my 96 year old grandmother who still feels guilty sending him to his uncle to be his son - a common custom in Korea at the time.

My uncle after the Landmark Forum: Still drinks periodically, but manages to be pleasant drunk. He still blames his mom but doesn't seem to harbor that dark resentment/blame towards her anymore. His mood is light and seems more receptive to suggestions - especially that makes hime work around the house. He also seems to enjoy participating with the seminar.

In one word: transformation - ok it did not fix him completely in 3 days as I hoped. But it's impressive so far.


At work, it's getting chilly and the school hasn't started heating yet. So it feels like I'm in a fridge all day. There was a 6 year old hiding out in the bathroom because he missed the bus to go to the day care and could not go back home. He didn't have his mom's phone number but said his sister comes to this school. He didn't remember what grade he was in. Finally the school administrator found the sister's name and called the mother to come and pick him up. It was an event ful day on Thursday.

I don't know why the kids insist on screaming their head off. Especially 1st and 4th graders. For the 4th grader, I kept talking quieter and quieter and that drove them absoloutely nuts.
