Disrespect Is The Weapon Of The Weak

We Don't Yet Know, Above All, What The World Might Be Like If Children Were To Grow Up Without Being Subjected To Humiliation, If Parents Would Respect Them And Take Them Seriously As People.

An Unacknowledged Trauma Is Like A Wound That Never Heals Over And May Start To Bleed Again At Any Time.

The Truth About Our Childhood Is Stored Up In Our Body, And Although We Can Repress It, We Can Never Alter It. Our Intellect Can Be Deceived, Our Feelings Manipulated, And Conceptions Confused, And Our Body Tricked With Medication. But Someday Our Body Will Present Its Bill, For It Is As Incorruptible As A Child, Who, Still Whole In Spirit, Will Accept No Compromises Or Excuses, And It Will Not Stop Tormenting Us Until We Stop Evading The Truth.

The True Opposite Of Depression Is Not Gaiety Or Absence Of Pain, But Vitality: The Freedom To Experience Spontaneous Feelings.

Without Realizing That The Past Is Constantly Determining Their Present Actions, They Avoid Learning Anything About Their History. They Continue To Live In Their Repressed Childhood Situation, Ignoring The Fact That Is No Longer Exists, Continuing To Fear And Avoid Dangers That, Although Once Real, Have Not Been Real For A Long Time.
