  This is very tragic, but somewhat understandable. Moments where great change are required can give birth to a new person but sadly in these cases it led tragedy. These moments for he greatest growth in personality development are a 2 edged sword they can lead to growth or suicide.

  The Theory of Positive Disintegration is a novel approach to personality development. The theory is a forerunner of what today is called post-traumatic growth. Dąbrowski described the psychological factors he believed to be related to positive (growth full) outcomes after crises. He called these factors developmental potential and they include a description of psychological sensitivity he called overexcitability (OE). Dąbrowski observed that individuals with strong OE experience crises in a stronger, deeper and more personal manner. The intense experience of crises creates an opportunity for the conscious and volitional rearrangement of the self including a reformulation and reprioritization of one's values and beliefs. The individual forms a new image of his or her ideal personality. With this ideal as a guide, the lower aspects of the self are inhibited and higher goals and aspirations emphasized. The theory is a testimony to Kazimierz Dąbrowski's deep insights into human character and development.

  Teddy was most definitely a Company Man whether or not he was a child molester, I kind of have my doubts, we just have a plausible accusation, but no legal action taken.

  But due to the nature of constant sexual repression among those that climb the corporation ladder Tight Pants Tony being a case in point, we should not be surprised if a few members of the GB have molested children in the past (I think Greenlees was one) and a very repressed dark shadow(sexual repression) that bites them in the ass from time to time, a Dr. Jeckle and Mr. Hyde if you will.

  I think for public safety concerns better laws on gun control,and stricter liability laws if persons other than himself uses his gun in a criminal act. Persons of a known violent past, or with certain psychological disorders should not be allowed access to guns and it should be a felony to sell him one or allow usage of ones guns.

  What makes you---YOU?

  by eyeuse2badub in

  2. beliefs

  of course this is an open ended question but have you ever really thought about what makes you who you are?.

  is it our looks, our personality, our physique, our intelligence, our experiences and subsequent memories, our beliefs?

  is it a combination of all these things and even more?

  Neuroscience has it kind of narrowed down to where the sense of 'you' is in the brain:

  Flow states the "you" kind of goes away and you become hyperfocus'd

  I think with all that has happened in the recent past all these school shootings that it should be mandatory that these schools have in place a security system to protect these children while getting a government required education. The very fact that this public education is federally mandated should put them in hot seat if proper measures are not taken to safe guard our children attending these schools.

  I know it may be very hard to implement this reasonably but schools need to be a safe place for kids to learn, the trauma that these murders are causing our young ones something needs to be done.

  We back here in the colonies New England and all the rest,, still have an interest what goes on even though we declared our independence from Britain 1776(200+ years ago).

  With a last name like Wiltshire I should be a bit more concerned about who's marrying who in the royal family but I don't really care, my wife is from India and so she naturally has an interest being that her country gained independence from Britain in 1947. I think because Britain has left it mark on the world: "Rule Britannia, Britiannia Rules The Waves".

  So it easy for me to see why people care even though these Monarchs hold very little power now a days they represent a glorious past to which we were once connected.

  I would say that thing we call 'you" is pure imaginary, it's a thing that happens in the brain. One can by absorption become the object, the default mode network shuts down. Once the DFM gets shut down the 'you' gets shut down to, and one is in a higher state of consciousness, less restricted, the unity or I am everything state of awareness can be pretty intense.

  So I view 'you' as an imaginary construct of the psyche I'm pretty sure that if this universe is a hologram then the unity experience gives one a truer picture of the universe.

  The Pope's response seemed very appropriate, and the bishops resigning proper. I think the Catholic Church's response to child abuse should be an example for the WT Popes/GB to follow if they want to have bragging rights over them. The 2 witness rule gotta go boys because the Catholic Church is making you look like a bunch of dip shits.
