Dear Niv:

You believe then in spirit guides who ignore you, or punish you? My goodness! It is true, isn’t it, that we see the gods we imagine in the image of our parents?

It is probably not a good thing for you to be talking on a regular basis to a person who just doesn’t know you (she just doesn’t know me!).

You went to therapy on and off for many years, so you talked about a lot of things, I imagine. It might get tiring to talk about those things again here, I wonder. I hope not.

Basically, your experience as a child was living with a person who paid attention to you but disapproved of you and another person who did not pay attention to you/ was oblivious to you. The third option, that of living with a person who paid attention to you and approved of you, that would have saved you a whole lot of misery in life. That would have been that light in the tunnel all along.
