-- Quote of the Day --
“…We are moving away from
relationships each other and towards relationships with objects and creatures
that do not create pain in our lives – because we move away from pain and
towards pleasure. …We all want to be valued and in our relationships in this
culture people feel anxious, nervous, and distracted – 50% of the time people
are not even paying attention to what they are doing. …Changing behavior goes
against everything we have done to stay safe – the limbic system is the
emotional, reactive brain part. The brain wave of the child is taking in
information, absorbing everything – once we go through puberty our brain
changes to Beta. …It is all about autonomy, self-governing, of being in control
of our lives. …When we start talking in terms of ‘should’ we are judging; that
you are not smart, you are not being appropriate, that you are not good enough.
…Our culture is narcissistic - We are more concerned with what I think, what am
I going to say, how can I get them to do what I think they should do.”
~ Geogianna Donadio
