Reconnecting means opening up to whatever part of our experience we were not previously allowing in . . . If our problem has been with another person, we will not react to them in the ways that our habits have previously compelled us to. When we are entranced by our personality, we believe that we know what the other person is always like and what they will do, but when we reconnect with them, we realize how much we do not know about them. We appreciate and respect the mystery of their Being because we are more connected with our own Being. Once we allow ourselves to not know what the person is going to do or say, or what they are thinking, a much more real and immediate relationship with then becomes possible.” ― Don Richard Riso, The Wisdom of the Enneagram: The Complete Guide to Psychological and Spiritual Growth for the Nine Personality Types Getting more and more excited about sharing Enneagram teachings at Unity Spiritual Center of Manhattan Kansas on Sept. 21.
