Vol.13 Wanting to be understood
Irene's note
We all may carry a longing within us:
“I want to be understood,” or “I want my true voice to be heard.”
I have worked so hard. I have contributed so much. I have made so many sacrifices. I have this much kindness and compassion. I have these talents. And right now, I am suffering this much.
When misunderstandings arise while we are holding onto these feelings, we can unknowingly find ourselves trapped in an endless “battle of the intellect.”
What became clear during this Strawberry Jam was a wondrous experience: that even in the midst of such a battle, by continuing “one thing,” what we truly need returns to us.
Together with KR, we look at the memories behind the desire “I want to be understood” from the perspective of cleaning.

Thank you for the opportunity to "talk" about living life through Self I-Dentity through Ho'oponopono (SITH).
We are excited to meet with you, hear your stories, and enjoy this time together as we explore cleaning.
We look forward to your participation!
Peace always,
Irene Taira
Aloha, everyone.
I am truly grateful for this special opportunity. It is also a wonderful chance for cleaning for myself.
I have been fortunate to interview KR countless times. Usually, we start with a general theme, but KR always begins by asking, “What’s up?” That simple question naturally leads us to talk about what’s going on in the moment.
From there, I often become aware of the stubborn patterns or habits of thought I’ve been caught in. It becomes an opportunity to clean with them. By the end of the interview, I often feel lighter, more at ease, and more like my true self.
Rather than tackling difficult problems, just cleaning with even the smallest experiences we are having in the moment can unexpectedly open up the world in front of us. I hope we can all experience that feeling together through this new event.
Thank you.
