Important Realization

[qos]

All those things I released last night *could* re-attach to me if I let them, if I persist in old habits of thought and action.

A ritual like this doesn't simply erase things. It frees me -- but I will reap the consequences for how I use my freedom, especially if I run back, or slip back, to what limited me before.

*nods* That's one of the perils of any sort of metamorphic magic--even after the peak experience/ritual/etc., it's still work to keep the changes in place while your brain and life rewire themselves. Realizing this increases the chance of success exponentially.

Thanks for the affirmation. I haven't done much of this kind of work, so It's nice to have someone else confirm my intuition.

On a scale of 1 to 10, that realization is *calculates* about a 19. In other words, it's critically important. You just put yourself ahead of the game. *g*

(Now keep hold of the realization, and act on it.)

Yep. I've noted that as well. I swear, though; even if you go back, it makes it easier next time to slip from those paths and habits. Consistency is key in as much as changing patterns goes.
