Cracking the Safe
Everybody is like a security safe, enveloped with thick walls of ego. You can spend a lot of time and energy hitting the ego, reasoning with the ego and eventually you are rewarded with a crack. By that time, I am so tired I need to heal. But the safe will also heal itself and layer on a thicker than before slab of ego.
Why not push the buttons of the safe? Try the various combinations. Although you are not sure what you are doing at that point in time and seems like the combinations are endless, it is gentler, more rewarding and is permanent. The reward is far bigger than a crack - the safe is OPEN!
But I must remember this - before I attempt anything, I must be sure that the safe is howling to be opened. AND, I must know when to stop.
