The "shadow self" eventually demands to be known....for all of us, denial is no longer an option. It's then, during the coming to 'terms' that we experience freedom. Once we have embraced ALL aspects of our self....the good, the bad, the ugly, the light and the dark, the only left to do is accept and love who we really are.
And that is true freedom!
In general, our 'shadow self' is not as bad as we first may have thought..


Yet we wrestle with it, deny it, bury it..............
(Smoke-eat-drink-work-sex to extremes)

Does it manifest itself in 'sabotaging' our efforts at success in life?

Not 'bad days' kind of thing...deeper.

Example: I went through a series of dysfunctional relationships in my 20's. It seemed I keep finding the same type of woman despite very different externals. Some one suggested that all behavior has some kind of pay-off.....I asked myself what kind of pay-off or reward I was getting from these dysfunctional relationships.

I wanted to be needed....rather than loved.
Why?
We won't discuss that.......but the realization caused me to change....and start dating different women...with better results.

Our personal darkness.......the shadow self......that which we hide from public view....often ourselves too. Must be accepted, come to terms with.

Well...after she returned to Michigan...I saw a road sign that said
138 Miles to.............
So I told her thats how close she was now.
Turned out to be 150 miles...2.5 hrs.
Did that for more than a few months.





Worth every mile.

So we were discussing the 'The Last Exorcism'.....comparing to 'The Exorcist' and how the book goes so much deeper into the lives of the characters, external to the problem of Regan being possessed. These people are tortured by their own psychological 'demons', which is the current explanation of what possession truly is. Who is more tortured, and can these characters every be free from their personal demons that haunt them throughout their lives ? Which is scarier...the evil external to ourselves.......or the darkness within ?

Both my teen-aged daughters have hair styles where most of the head is shaved. They love it.
I've been shaving my head for yrs.

I smoke and dated a non-smoker. She drank and I don't.
A very long story......and she said MY breath was bad.

Her breath could knock a buzzard off a S**T wagon.

Has anyone read the Philip K Dick book?


A long time ago.

This particular book was made into the movie "Blade Runner"



Similar to the way the short story "Super-Toys Last All Summer Long" was made into the movie
'A.I."

Hi there! New here and glad to see I am not alone. I just celebrated 2 years on 8-10! What I would like to share is that recently we had a wonderful member who had 12 yrs killed by a drunk driver last week. And we were talking about how that drunk driver may come into the rooms someday and how will be able to put principals before personalities? We were really hurt by this unnecessary accident. But for the grace of God, there go I.


The Higher Power will put this man exactly where he needs to be when the time comes.
