You tell yourself you want X because of Y... well that's your story and you're stickin with it.
For some reason, Y just doesn't seem to happen?
That's cause part of you, wants something OTHER than what YOU want,,,,
Part of you, is looking at another part of you... in contemptThat is the very essence of codependency
and it's evidence of dis-harmony (lack of harmony, aka absence of serenity)
That part of you (the one with inner contempt for you, or for the "rest of you") has an agenda
an agenda that isn't YOURS... it has a secondary target in mind
here's the kicker.. if you're wounded, if you're not a healthy well rounded inter-dependent being
It's BIGGER THAN YOU ARE
guess what's gonna happen if you want something and IT wants something else?
