I constate precisely the same affirmation! Next time, I'll remember that Kel is with me in saying, "NO, I will NOT go quietly into the night!"Kel said:Most of the time, now when the thought comes up for me, I think of those damned Lizzies, and kind of get my hackles up, sorta like: You dirty, rotten SOBs! I'm one person who KNOWs what you're up to. No! I'm staying 'til I die of "natural" causes or I go to 4th.
...this is why Laura sez, "Y'all gotta read these books!.."Transmissions said:Q: (L) When you say that things "happened" but are not currently happening, what do you mean? I was abducted or something... why?
A: To install self-destruct programming.
Q: (L) I find this to be incredible! So, I have a "self-destruct" program. Considering my life, that could be true and a reasnable explanation. And Frank has one also?
A: Similar, but not an exact copy so as to mask.

Tree said:I have the "pretend to be perfect" program. Not only do I get inwardly upset when I'm wrong or make mistakes, but I really really try to prevent others from finding out! It has something to do with how others see me...almost as if how they see me creates the truth of who I am. Needless to say I have plenty of "work" to do everyday. I'm sure this is the program that has prevented me from posting more often... its hard to post a perfect post. Now I'm seeing that I'm hurting myself this way, and I'm trying to shed this program and be authentic.
My other favorite program is to get people to feel sorry for me. I whine, or complain, or exagerate my poor circumstances. I love sympathy, but outwardly I'll brush it off.
Thanks to everyone else for sharing. It helps with self reflection.
