I Have Never Met An Aggressive Person

Ego Is To The True Self What A Flashlight Is To A Spotlight.

We Cannot Heal What We Cannot Feel.

The Drivenness In Any Addiction Is About The Ruptured Self, The Belief That One Is Flawed As A Person. The Content Of The Addiction, Whether It Is Alcoholism Or Work, Is An Attempt At An Intimate Relationship. The Workaholic With Her Work Or The Alcoholic With His Booze Are Having A Love Affair. Each Alters Mood To Avoid The Feeling Of Loneliness And Hurt In The Underbelly Of Shame.

Guilt Says I've Done Something Wrong; ... Shame Says There Is Something Wrong With Me. Guilt Says I've Made A Mistake; ... Shame Says I Am A Mistake. Guilt Says What Did Was Not Good; ... Shame Says I Am No Good.

You Can't Heal What You Can't Feel!
