"What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared with what lies inside us."
Oliver Wendle Holmes
I grow in interacting situations.
They are the most risky and I am often sensitively cautious
– sometimes scared.
Spending time with individuals and groups who are communicating ‘Level 5’ excites me. It’s real. It drives me.
I know a human who is great at being in contact with their own feelings, which is great compared with the many who bury them deep and so turning into ulcers – or worse!
But hopeless at managing those feelings.
That’s the big issue with feelings – having them, owning them without being controlled by them.
Was Ghandi referring to someone you know when,
in response to the question about his worst experience – in the whole tortuous life,
he said
‘The hard hearted of the educated’.
Are you real?
or
Are you tight and controlled – not willing to share any vulnerability?
Transparency is just for your window overlooking your garden?
‘The single most worthwhile thing in my life ….
Was to admit I had a problem with food, drugs and alcohol’.
Elton John
