Clarity of Innocence

Yes, we live in a toxic environment!

A healthy environment is support and encouragement in growing from our own power, instincts, feelings, and needs! That’s called nurture.

When we live from our hearts like this is when we’re the most responsible, compassionate, and just plain fun. This is what is increasingly missing from life today, and why we’re so hostile now!

We are supposed to live our entire lives from our own internal power and wisdom!

That feels good! It’s the normal and natural way of all life!

This is high self-esteem, which is supposed to be the normal condition for all of us.

None of us got that though.

None of us got support in living from our own inner strength and wisdom.

We each found our own way to forge a path in surviving anyway.

Consequently though, it has become impossible for us to see how safe and comfortable relationships should really be!

It just hurts too much!

None of us want to be reminded of how much went through, and how much it hurt!

So, the vast majority of us never recover!

OUR DEFENSE AGAINST FEELING THAT PAIN

We like to see ourselves as independent. We want to believe we can feel strong regardless of the input from those around us.

We want to believe that, because we had to find a way to survive.

For our own peace of mind we need to believe in our self-created solution.

We have to believe we can survive without the normal loving support that is natural for humans.

Nobody is ever going to talk a neurotic person out of what they have decided to believe. We can’t let go. Our survival depends on it.

However, the moment we allow ourelves to admit and feel how we really feel, the facade ends!

THERAPY

Therapy is letting go of our facade and admitting the hurt we suffer.

What hurt? We live without support from others as well as our original power, instincts, feelings, and awareness of our own needs!

This is not how life normally feels! Our world is toxic!

We are stuck though.

Until we do drop the act, and live our own feelings, we are not going to get support! Ever!

Our own condition makes it impossible! It’s called being neurotic!

It’s nothing to be ashamed of. If we’re neurotic, it’s because that presented our only option for survival.

WE CAN RECOVER!

When we do, we will still find ourselves living in this toxic environment.

Our world has become a crazy place.

People are naturally loving. In this world though, we behave cruelly and relish in how strong we are.

We will be the only ones who can see.

But, we will regain our power, our instincts, our feelings, and awareness of our own needs.

It’s worth it!

It’s also the only way to bring our world back to kindness and cooperation.

Thanks for listening.

Good luck on your journey,
