[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 694122, member: 18958"] Thank you very much everybody!! Darkwing, you are right.My son has a problem with arrogance. And you are exactly right. The minute he felt that he had us "trained" and in his corner--the arrogance reared its head. Oh boy did I just check him. He ordered me to "come here so I can talk to you!" He wanted to assert his version involving dog pee--not only to evade responsibility but to assert the superiority of his way of thinking and acting. Darkwing, is this not all of us? I know that I do way better when I think of myself and my way of thinking and feeling as towards ever more mastery and taking responsibility. Especially since returning to work I find myself with all kinds of feelings--ashamed, self-critical, fearful that what I said was wrong or ill-thought, insecurity, etcetera--and I am flooded with negativity. About myself--primarily--and I catch myself wanting to make wrong in my mind somebody else to carry the icky feelings. And stop. Telling myself--[I]let it be--those feelings do not need to either eat away at you or be dumped into your perceptions of anybody else.[/I] Let them go, and let yourself be. [I]You are OK and so is everybody else. Just human. [/I]I guess I am saying, or asking--is not being in process--better for all of this then attaining some state of things--which is really artificial anyway? Thank you, Darkwing and everybody. [/QUOTE]
