Guilt and/or Shame is perhaps one of the hardest core issues to resolve, just because of the fear, of what another human being might think of me…. if they knew.
How do we ever get caught up in wanting more, more, more? Or, all I ever think about is me, me, me. Trouble is, some people don't see anything wrong with being Greedy or being Self-centered. Our culture encourages people to acquire wealth, and flaunt their success to others.
Look at how many cases are in the news about people being Corruptible and abusing their Power. Enron, Tyco, WorldCom, Congress, etc.
Who do you really Trust? Can you Trust anyone that has inflicted pain upon you? Whether they meant to or not. How many people will you bare your soul to? How many people do you know, that you believe, are Honorable?
Have we learned to Love unconditionally? Do we live with open Acceptance?
Have we Honored our Commitments? Have others Honored their Commitment to us? Do we fulfill our Duties to the best of our ability?
Do we have unwavering Faith and show our Loyalty by the way we live our lives?
If we don't do these things, then why don't we? Some of us may do some of these things. But who do you know that has conquered all of these obstacles?
Of course accomplishing all of this is incredibly difficult. It is supposed to be. Do you really believe an enlightened Entity would make joining their realm easy? Do you honestly believe that you would only get one lifetime to get all of this correct? Who do you think originally coined the phrase "If you don't succeed at first, try, try, again!"
Now some of you have been asking when am I going to "get to the real point." Sorry, I must digress. The key is being provided for you with each installment. The groundwork is being laid to help people truly change their lives. It already has….. I met an 11 yr old boy in October of 2005. He was on 5 medications, multiple diagnoses, he was told he would need medication for the rest of his life. He weighed 172 lbs. He had cleared classrooms at school with his temper tantrums. He had already been removed from his foster home and was placed in a psychiatric facility. In less than 6 months he was off of all medication, weighed in at 140 lbs. and was nominated top-flight student for his 6th grade class. (the most improved) Without getting into specifics, suffice it to say this young man had suffered years of abuse. Had our paths not crossed, he most certainly would have spent a lifetime, in a chemical strait jacket. His willingness to verbalize the abuse that he had experienced, along with what I am attempting to impart to all of you, has changed his existence forever.
My step-daughter was diagnosed with Autism and was certified speech and language impaired. I met her when she was 6, she was mainstreamed by the 3rd grade. She will graduate high school this year and has an opinion on everything! Granted, that last one is still a work in progress, as we all are. I've treated 3 C,D, students diagnosed with ADHD, had them weaned off of their medication, under a Dr.s supervision. They then were willing to verbalize their feelings in session over several months time. All three soon began making the honor roll and were nominated to Who's Who in American Schools. What I am trying to impart to you, is measurable, it is real, it has produced dramatic results.
I thought that I was making myself very clear in stating that there are core issues that we must resolve if we want to advance ourselves. I had hoped by now you could understand that we suffer injuries to who and what we are when we are young. That our essence has been altered by pain and the only way to relieve that pain, is to relive that pain. I also thought I had imparted the notion that anyone that has the courage to go back, can fly forward. The actual mechanics are simple beyond belief. First, it would help immensely to have a guide. Problem is, to be a guide, you have to take the ride. Be willing to allow your soul to release its pain. To purge your being, of every vile secret you consciously know and some that you don't consciously know right now. Relax, close your eyes and think to yourself (and mean it) I want to know. If you are lucky, a thought will just pop into your head, yes….. no…..what? Part of you may be willing, but quite frequently another part of me, will think not.

i , for instance, need to know a lot about a person before i can trust them.
i find it sad therapist are not aware of the fact that trust goes both ways..luckily i managed to google my therapist and found out things about his life but now that i know i still wonder why therapist insist on keeping their lives separate and so called neutral. there is no neutrality when you deal with people. to trust you need to know something about how that person works, to test drive.
as for pain, you need to face it but how is ;very carefully with a guide , like you said.
how come such a wise and honorable person has not published a profile, even simple facts, just wondering , i am a curious being, forgive me if you find this irrelevent
