Getting On : All My Politics
A bored rant | from Oddman - Tuesday, September 02, 2008 accessed 301 times My function is dysfunction. I'm successful at failing shit. I'm broke but I don't save. I'm drowning but refuse to swim. I love you but I hate you. I want what I can't have. I hate all that love me. I need help but won't accept yours. I scream in silent notes. I wash my face with tears. I don't know the guy in my mirror. I don't know who I am. I'm promiscuous but I'm loyal. I'm a junkie without my junk. I drink when I hate alcohol. I smoke just because. I'm violent but I'm passive. I yell when I'm calm inside. I'm a myriad of emotions I don't recognize. I'm beautiful but I'm ugly. I'm short but I walk tall. I'm proud of a self I don't know. I'm a narcisst but I hate myself. I hate life but I'm living. I'm alive, but I'm dead inside. I made a noose but I didn't jump. I'm suicidal but scared of death. I don't know who I am anymore. I'm cold hearted but I'm burning. I'm independent but I need you. I'm tough but you've broken me. I'm awake but I'm dreaming. I'm tired but I can't sleep. I'm bored but I won't get up. I'm faithless as I say a prayer. I'm confused and confusing. I'm lost but don't want answers. I have all your answers, and none of mine. |

| from Eva St John Tuesday, September 02, 2008 - 14:52 (Agree/Disagree?) It's a good description of the 'conditioned self' or the 'patterned self' (ie: a false 'survival self' that has been created by your subconscious in response to being bombarded with so much bullying and conditioning and conflicting input that it is in a state of eternal inner conflict and imbalance). The most important thing is to not mistake this 'wounded self' for the real core 'you' inside. Even as a FGA, I was in this conflicted state for many years after leaving TF (& even before joining TF). - And a conflicted, wounded self cannot 'cure itself'. The only solution I found was to become more 'enlightened', meaning inwardly I learned to become the observer of my 'self' from the stand point of pure awareness. I learned to step back from this emotional, drama-ridden, conflicted 'self' and be the non-judgemental-but-discerning witness of my emotions & experiences, and to stop making a personal drama out of this 'selfs' feelings & reactions, - just to observe it in a neutral, compassionate manner & not buy into all its mixed up thoughts & feelings about itself. The next step is to then learn to come from that place in you that precedes this wounded self, to live life from there, & gradually the wounded self begins to align itself with this 'higher awareness you', ie: the real you, the core self filled with latent new potential & self empowerment that has been lying dorment, buried beneath this false, wounded self.
