I am 68 years old and in reflection I would say most of my suffering is self generated and was, is, unnecessary... a child developing without active guidance is very problematic. My Father, a good man, was not equipped emotionally for fatherhood. In 1977 I, through my own effort, found the work and got to know Gurdjieff through his writings and studying with Annie Lou Stavely in Oregon. She taught me how to work as he taught her, I am forever grateful and consider him my spiritual father...daily praying for their souls as well as the souls of my parents and humanity
