Reunion at Locke




One of the sweet things about visiting my son, Barnaby and his girl friend, Sheri, for Thanksgiving was a trip to Locke for an afternoon with Debbie Mendel (Bruce Di Marsico's widow) and her partner, Russell. Here we are after a delicious lunch.

Bruce Di Marsico created the Option Method for finding and eliminating beliefs that keep people from being happy -- and lots of other things. He was my teacher in the early 70's and I cannot imagine what my life would be without him. I was not a happy camper in those days.

Debbie has recently published a lot of work by Bruce. 

Locke is a fascinating little town in the Sacramento river Delta in Northern, California. It was built for Chinese laborers almost 100 years ago and very little has changed since!

Debbie and I had not seen each other since before Bruce's death in 1995. It was great to share a big hug and a wonderful day full of old memories and exciting new discoveries about each other's lives and work.
Wishing you long, happy relationships filled with love!
