Imagine my relief on reading the second agreement that the author wasn't going to take it personally when I call him pretentious. So glad to have that assumption cleaned up.

On a serious note, I was disappointed to see that he doesn't address the potential for abuse in "nothing I can say an hurt you" when coming from a place of not being "impeccable with your word".

As I read the first agreement, I gossiped continually with my wife picking on the lameness of how the author expressed his ideas. I agree with the messages, but his explanations make me want to puke. I enjoyed the delicious irony that I was doing exactly what he was preaching against while reading his sermon.

Let me paraphrase the chapter: live with integrity and based in reality, & how we speak is how we think.

Wow, what a load of New Age garbage so far. Despite that, one nugget has shown through: "In your whole life nobody has ever abused you more than you have abused yourself. And the limit of your self-abuse is exactly the limit that you will tolerate from someone else. If someone abuses you a little more than you abuse yourself, you will probably walk away from that person."

She's saving way too much for the very end. No way it can survive the build up.
