Hi Teak

I’ll just say that whenever we don’t want to look into something, it’s a sign that a defense mechanism is at work.

True enough. There is a time for all things.

I found in my own crossing of rivers, a tendency to linger by the shores, clinging to the raft, trying to take it with me and not trusting my ability to build another. Perhaps that is what I was responding to in this thread.

When is it time to leave the shore and continue? Each of us answers that in our own time.

When we go their will be more rivers to cross. We might even come upon the same river again as it meanders its way to the sea. Maybe this time we build a better raft that wont get us as wet, maybe not.

In the end it Will be a story we tell ourselves and others. Sometime a realization to a ability to tell a better one can be enough to free us. We really do work for that which no work is required.

We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time. – TS Eliot
