Letter to HTE Executives
  Thank you, Mr. Gordon Pan, Mr. Richard Chuang, and Mr. Tony Randeiro for taking this time to attend to what I have to say. What I have to say I consider to be of great potential value for your mlm organization. The ideas here are born out of not a little thought and experience. The motive for my speaking is to promote better, more effective and enjoyable ways to market the wonderful products which HTE has the privilege of distributing. I am sure that I am not the first to speak these things, or that these ideas are original with me. Nor do I propose to suggest or recommend details. I leave that to the more mathematically and organizationally skilful. I only submit recommended principles which I have no doubt will boost the morale, sales and success of HTE considerably. In the past several months, I, and others with me, have lost the enjoyment I once had with HTE. Why? We have been placed, by the nature of the system as it now stands, under pressure to sell, to sponsor, to accumulate points in specific areas.  As well, we have had the disappointment of not having credit for points we worked very hard to receive. As a result, it has caused us discouragement. We feel as though we are being cheated and manipulated in directions which are not natural. We accuse nobody of deliberating such results. We only recommend ideas with hope for the good of all concerned. For example: The system requires that, besides achieving certain volume point levels, we build superv...

Page 10 PART SIX– Harvest Haven to Surprise Visitors (cont.) Particle – Marilyn's Bitterness “Marilyn” means “bitterness.” I spoke to her that morning and got absolutely nowhere. She said she saw what I saw of her, but she didn't change. She continued to demand, boss, dictate, argue, interrupt, and adamantly insist on her rightness, way, and beliefs. I was helpless. Again, behind my back, she conducted conversation with Lois, who stood with her. On my walk, I begged You, Lord, to open my eyes, ears, and heart that I might see, hear, and understand. If wrong, correct, rebuke, even kill, but get it over with. “What is going on?” I asked, pleading with You. Immediately, the thought came: “Power struggle, two entities vying for power, authority.” Of course! For 23 years, we had battled! We hadn't been man and wife, but competing partners. Marilyn had been a tyrant in my life. In these days alone at home, I felt such a wonderful relief. At times, I'd been somewhat lonely and yet very relieved. After all these years, I began to realize the utter control Marilyn had over every aspect of my life. She was a tyrant, a dictator, and a smooth one at that. I have many times also seen her colors come out when she didn't get her way, even in small things, and if her schedule ever had to change, she was almost beside herself. She told me how when her mother left when she was 12, she wasn't going to let anyone anywhere know th...

I didn't feel at peace about any answer I gave him. Why? I found myself getting into a sort of confusing defense against keeping the seventh day, the Fourth Commandment. I also had to reason with him about keeping another day, Sunday. I was confounded by man's theology, and it wasn't making sense while trying to answer a child's simple question. Particle – Haste Is Never Necessary One of the things I have learned is that there's never need for rushing; rushing always accomplishes the opposite of what is intended. Haste indeed makes waste and “he that hastes with his feet sins.” Haste is bred of unbelief. God is never in a hurry. So many things continue in desperate condition and it seems God does nothing about it… until the time. There's never a need to hurry, unless He says so, and He rarely if ever does. Particle – A Fire Played With Marilyn and Sean are playing with fire, and already they're burning. The fire grows and spreads, and is capable of burning everyone, given time, nobody exempt. That's how it works; the heat is felt by all who are nearby to varying degrees according to their proximity. It's not easy to stand outside, watching a home burn with family inside, being told to let it happen. I take it by faith that this fire is a purifying on...
