We Are Always Doing Something To Cover

We Tend To Run Our Whole Life Trying To Avoid All That Hurts Or Displeases Us, Noticing The Objects, People, Or Situations That We Think Will Give Us Pain Or Pleasure, Avoiding One And Pursuing The Other.

We Are Always Doing Something To Cover Up Our Basic Existential Anxiety. Some People Live That Way Until The Day They Die.

We Have To Face The Pain We Have Been Running From. In Fact, We Need To Learn To Rest In It And Let Its Searing Power Transform Us.

There Is No End To The Opening Up That Is Possible For A Human Being.

Underneath Our Nice, Friendly Facades There Is Great Unease. If I Were To Scratch Below The Surface Of Anyone I Would Find Fear, Pain, And Anxiety Running Amok. We All Have Ways To Cover Them Up. We Overeat, Over-drink, Overwork; We Watch Too Much Television.
