I was introduced to the
Landmark Forum by my
husband’s colleague in June 2006. Leon’s colleague invited him to an
evening session. Leon came home and shared that it was an interesting
talk but he was not sure exactly what the Landmark Forum was. This
aroused my curiosity and I requested that the next time he brings me
along.
When there was another event back in June 2006, Leon’s colleague invited
him and me to attend. During the evening session, I did not know exactly
what the course was about either. But there was one thing I heard the
leader, Rachel Davis said, that anything you want is possible. At that
point in my life, all I wanted was to be the best parent to my two kids.
All my considerations came to play, yes it was all good, but would it
work for me? How would anyone know what would happen in our future? What
about some participants comments that sounded weird? What about these
pushy people keep asking me to sign up? Well after all of that - I
choose to take a risk. I registered and I felt excited and looked
forward to the Landmark Forum.
On the last day of the Landmark Forum, they were talking about several
distinctions and I had a major breakthrough. I could see that my
behavior unknowingly had been governed by the folklore about sons
‘betraying’ their mothers after they find their partners. I was aghast
that I was already preparing for this ‘betrayal”; and my son was at that
time only one year old!
I really got to see how ridiculous that was. At the same time I could
see the predictable future with my son if I would just cruise along in
that path. No wonder I used to get so tired as I tried to being fair
between my son and my daughter. In the
Landmark Forum I got clear that I
could and did have a choice in the matter. It was a magical moment where
all at once I was forever free to express my love for my son as well.
The most valuable breakthrough for me after I did the
Landmark Forum
remained to be the freedom to being a working mom to my two kids. The
occasional guilt and burden completely disappeared. The possibility of
being a great mom for the kids and being successful in my career is
real.
My favorite course in Landmark Education is the
Advanced Course. Through this
course, I am present to how special Landmark graduates and staff are. A
community of people standing for each and every person being great and
having our life work not just for ourselves but for others around us.
This inspires me.
What inspires me to assist, be it leading an Introduction or sharing
with a participant or our guests, is that I get present to my own
transformation when the other party is left touched, moved and inspired.
To put it simply, the opportunity to making a difference.
There is always so much energy and aliveness when I am in our centre,
the Landmark Education Singapore Office, surrounded by
Landmark
graduates and staff people. The presence of love, peace, harmony for the
world right now - and this is the world that my children are growing up
into - never fail to touch, move and inspire me.
I love possibility ..
