be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,

Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue

"Today Was a Really Good Episode!" |
Today's episode was pretty good! Anyone out there agree with me? I think Iyanla pulled together a lot of her season's lessons with the "Learn to Ride a Bike" exercise and the "Lock and Key" exercise she did with Christina. And that discussion about excellence, and how you'd have to practice, plateau and then move forward, over and over again until you reached a point of excellence was really good. I'm going to use that the next time I want to give up at a plateau. Based on last season and this season, it seems that Iyanla has a lot of exercises that don't seem to lead far until the end-- and then she does a few exercises that really tie up some loose ends and make the whole kit and kiboodle make sense. But that's my take on things. Also, I really couldn't see where things were going with Christina until today-- and today it seemed Iyanla put a lot of concepts together in such a way that Christina really will have some tools to take into her real life. It seemed to give Christina hope that she could still use the life skills she came to the SO house with-- but in a more positive (and legal) manner. And where in the past, I thought Iyanla didn't really like Christina much, today I could see she really liked her and had hope for her. I think Christina can make it. But Lisa??? I dunno. I wonder what Iyanla would have done if she was Lisa's LC. Not that Rhonda hasn't done all that she could, short of kicking Lisa's stupid a$$ out. But it just would be interesting to see if Iyanla could have done anything better or different with that idiot.

".......I really >believe IV doesn't reach most >of these women with her >lessons, they do them and >they say a prayer to >the universe they guess right >and IV is pleased but >as a result they don't >work at the exercise they >work at pleasing IV which >then means they don't internalize >the lesson they just work >very hard to please IV." Well Bax, I'm glad that at least I'M getting something out of IV's exercises, even if you think the ladies on t.v. aren't. Heaven knows you can do everything in your power to get a message across to someone-- and some people will NEVER get anything out of it-- Like Lisa. I mean, tell me-- do you have any ideas about what in the world could help somebody like Lisa??? But I digress.
Perhaps IV's lessons aren't useful for everyone. But at least she's useful for some. Faithnj

I liked today's episode too. I think bringing Bethany into the house really lightened things up. I could really feel her support allison. The other housemates just have not grasped how to support each other. I am hoping the example will help. I really think IV is trying to get christina finished. She is taking the GED on Friday. She has been set on a career path and she has a job set up at home. Not a whole lot else they can do with her. It like graduating from rehab if you use the tools they give you, you can be sucessful. I really think she has the desire to stay on track. I think jessica is close also. SHe has this last meeting with her father and fiance. All she will need is her future life plan. Not too much more left for her. Lisa and TJ I really think could benefit from having some new people in the house. I see them as having much more time there. I am not sure about Jill yet. They have backed away from her for a while.

I agree. But here is what I have been noticing. From this year and last. The people that Rhonda coach don't get it as deeply as if LV had coached them. I really like IV as a coach. Not sure about Rhonda.

Yes, loved today's show. Especially seeing Bethany again! Enjoy her way of talking, what a refreshing person to have around the house. You could see she "lighened up the mood", great idea to have her come in for the day.

I think this whole week's worth of episodes have been great! It seems like it's becoming more and more of the SO that we love to watch and I'm glad because I was about to give up on the show!!
