Description
<p></p><p><strong>7 Manifestations of Self</strong></p><p><strong>Self esteem</strong>: My stage character. The role I have assigned myself</p><p><strong>Security</strong>: What I think I need to be “ok”</p><p><strong>Ambitions</strong>: What I want</p><p><strong>Personal Relations</strong>: What the relationship “should” look like</p><p><strong>Sex Relations</strong>: How they “should” be</p><p><strong>Pocketbook</strong>: Finances</p><p><strong>Pride</strong>: How they are supposed to see me</p><p>These seven things are <strong>not </strong>bad things, they are things I have given power over to the people/principles/institutions in column 1, <em>instead of to God </em>(solution).</p><p>*Also I like to write in the big gap under column 2, "Have I done column 2 to column 1, or anyone else?" Yes or No and name(s) if yes to examine in step 8. BB Reference, "they, like ourselves" - p.67 - are we alike in this way I have been resenting? Not to trash myself, but to find empathy/compassion/forgiveness/understanding/new perspective.</p><p></p><p> </p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.
