TFTD

Change of scene has no effect upon unconscious conflicts.--Edmund Bergler, M.D.

There's no running away from the internal strife.
Whatever haunts us must finally be confronted and resolved if we're ever to grow and contribute to our world.
When we keep secrets locked away, the secrets begin to keep us locked away as well.
It is folly, and yet entirely human, to think a new location, a new job, a new lover will cure whatever troubles us.
The truth is, however, that whatever trips us up is at the same time trying to edge us forward to new awareness, and thus the next level of growth.

Our troubles are tools for a strengthened foundation.
Without them, we'd soon crumble.

When we consider the conflicts we encounter as opportunities for further development, they excite us rather than provoke anxiety.
Changing our perspective can make the same scene appear quite new.






(excuse me whilest I make raspberry sounds at the fairies....)

The reading fairies are definitely right about that one. I tried it yesterday. It didn't work.

Ok so trouble will give you a new perspective. But not a new job, a new location or a new lover?
Hmmm.
