A friend of mine was 30 yeasr old before she bought a pair of jeans becasue in her childhood her mother caused her to believe that jeans were only and always associated with a class of people which she had taught her duaghter to avoid at all costs. Unconsciously she had been living by that classy bit of mis-education all her life without even being aware of it. Can anyone else think of something in their personal life which is similar? Once finding something in your life which is similar can you easily overcome the conditioning you have given yourself? =============================================================================== From the mostly vacant environment of Jeanette L.
