Dr. Prager, an assistant profes sor at University of Texas at Dal las, has just completed a study on intimacy. Her discovery: “Basical ly, there’s not much understand ing about the development of in timacy among women.” Dr. Prager says psychologists have developed patterns about the ability to form intimate rela tions that are designed to fit men, and that creates problems where women are concerned. First comes defining the term. “It’s just difficult to put a finger on what the capacity for intimacy is,” she said. But after a survey of 100 UTD women, ages 22 to 55, Dr. Prager has found, among other things, that intimacy de pends on more than just marital status. “An intimate relationship is in dependent of institutional re lationships,” she said. In the past, psychological stu dies have focused on two standard measures of depth and commit ment in a relationship: the special ability to share the core of oneself, and the intention of working at the relationship indefinitely. “That is no longer enough,” she said. So even though married cou ples may talk all the time, they’re not building intimacy unless they’re talking about intimate things. “How much do they say that is personal, and how personal is it?” she asked. “Do they know what motivates each other? His reac tion to a certain situation? Her goals?” To answer these questions, Prager’s questionnaires dealt with how well people in a close re lationship knew one another, and how well they resolved conflicts. She found that the women fell into three categories: those who had close, intimate relationships; those involved mostly in social re lationships without intimacy; and those who were isolated and feared intimacy. The last group was the smallest, comprising 6 percent of those sur veyed, but there appeared to be a correlation between self-esteem and a fear of intimacy. Another obstacle to developing intimacy, she said, arises from so cial expectations. “Often women get involved in relationships earlier than they really want because of social press ures,” she said. Dr. Prager said she found no correlation between sex and in timacy, but she did find, to a high degree, that women who were best able to resolve conflicts also were among the ones who found intimacy easiest. Dr. Prager says this suggests that women have been brought up passive, and may not be used to speaking their minds and making demands. SEEDPOWER Gold Diamond snowflake charm and gold B-initial charm.

Even if you try as hard as you can, still you'll never make it. You just weren't meant to. Even if you got up in the morning and said resolutely, "I'll make it this time. Today it will be different," and then put forth all your effort, you still could never make it. Not much time would pass and you would find that, with some little slip up or perhaps some horrible mistake, you could never make it. You could never live an ideal life. We humans just can't do it. No matter how you arrange things around you, still, inside of you there remains a hole, dissatisfaction, a longing. If you get all you want, it's a bore, and your finest question only gives birth to another question. What's it all about? And where are you headed? Even if you knew, you'd never make it. We just don't have the power. That's why. Within us, there's not the power. Yet a seed floated to the ground. A tiny, insignificant seed blown by the wind, or perhaps dropped by the hand of a man. It fell into the ground, and the earth closed up around it. Everything looked the same. Nobody thought anything had happened. Yet in the course of time, when the rains came and subsided, some thing green and tiny pushed through the ground. It made it. The seed made it. God's life is just like that. You could never live an ideal life. You will always be a displea sure to yourself. Always you will be full of failures. But God's life entering into you, noisel essly — at the turn of your heart to Jesus — is just like a seed that floats down into the deep est part of your being and takes root, turning over the old soil, receiving the rain, and soon... CHRIST comes forth. He'll make it, in you. And he said. So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed upon the earth; and should sleep and rise night and day, and the seed should spring up and grow, he knoweth not how. The earth beareth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear. But when the fruit is ripe, straight-way he putteth forth the sickle, because the harvest is come.

On this date in history: In 1776, the second Continen tal Congress officially changed the American nation’s name from “United Colonies” to “United States.” In 1971, more than 1,900 con victs took over the state prison at Attica, N.Y., and held 35 convicts hostage. Four days later, 28 con victs and nine hostages were killed as state police re-took the prison. In 1976, Chinese Communist Party Chairman Mao Tse-tung died at the age of 82. In 1978, Jack L. Warner, a founding father of Hollywood’s film industry, died at the age of 86. A thought for the day: Mas sachusetts Gov.
