I have a reasonable good life. I have a great job that I love. I have many friends, I live in a comfortable 4 bedroom home with a two car garage. I'm involved in many activities, I volenteer at my church and with community organizations. I have a strong family with very tight bonds. I love the feeling of helping others and I am currently working with a vocational school helping people pass their GED's. Oh..and I have a great girl friend who is a real hottie. It hasn't been always this good for me, I've been on my own since I was 16, at one time I lived in the back seat of a 1970 Nova for 2 years, I put myself through school (long story). Somewhere, somehow I have this feeling that if everyone knew the real me, if they really knew my deepest secrets...they wouldn't like me. I really have no secrets other than a very abusive childhood that I tell no one about, I feel a deep shame for nothing I did..somehow I feel dirty about this.


your thoughts please

In 1969, former Beatle John Lennon and his wife Yoko Ono launched the "War Is Over" campaign by buying billboard and poster space in 12 cities around the world. The huge signs read, "WAR IS OVER-- IF YOU WANT IT--HAPPY CRISTMAS, JOHN AND YOKO" The concept is simple-- advertising works. Get a billion people around the world to open their hearts and minds to the possibility of peace. How about for our purpose an ad campaign in Arabic-- quoting a beautiful line from the Quo'ran? What about producing very entertaining Arabic films with a positive message. It is usually the poor of the population that turn to fundamentalism for answers. Children grew up in Palestine, for example in poverty because their government was not taking care of them. Children with nothing to lose became suicide bombers. Had the world chipped in and given them lovely parks, soccer fields and video games it could have reshaped their childhood and their level of joy. Now it costs more in war & anguish.

I mean when your own dad isn't able to love you it takes its toll. That mixed in with the craziness of him using the words, "I love you" but his behavior and actions were far from loving and actually opposite of it. In any case, it has deeply damaged me over the years in the choices I have made relationship wise. I got to a point where I deny myself of all loving potential because of the hurt I carry regarding my dad. So, now that I am older and understand in my head that I deserve love, how do I really grasp that belief and manifest it and let go of the injuries that were ground into me via my father?

I don't think I am scared and I do not think I feel guilty. I am trying to kill that voice in my mind that keeps telling me I am bad and keeps telling me to be afraid. I do not think this is the real me as I am naturally confrontational and unafraid of most things. Am I on the right track here? I also regularly approach street hoods and call them names and tell them to learn manners. I never feel any fear when doing these things but the voice in my head tells me to be scared. Will I kill that evil voice that wants me to remain mediocre with the approach I am taking?

I'm really tall and hardly a day goes that someone who is a complete stranger doesn't comment on my height. It doesn't really bother me at this point, but I'm curious why complete strangers feel they can cross that social barrier and say something about a physical attribute. Do you have this or a similar experience?

My boyfriend keeps having this nightmare, though the scenarios change each time, the theme remains the same, and in the end I leave him for my ex-boyfriend. We love each other more than anything and plan to get married after college. I would never, EVER cheat on him or leave him. We trust each other more than anyone in the world. We have been best friends since we met 6 years ago and he watched my painful relationship with my ex and helped me through it. We tried to date in the past, but I wasn't ready and before our relationship even began, my ex came crawling back and I took him, a mistake I regret to this day because of how it hurt my boyfriend (and myself). We have worked through this problem and talked openly and extensively about it. The issue has been resolved, so we thought. But his recurring dream suggests otherwise. Is he paranoid? Just struggling with a haunting memory of our past? Or is there something more here that I am missing? And how can he make these dreams go away?

Had a dream last night where i was talking to the "other side" through a mirror. The first dancing teacher that I had died when I was 12, and she appeared in my dream. I was trying to talk to her and remind her of who I was, and I was telling her that I grew up to be a professional dancer and that I teach with her daughter, but she didn't remember me. I have never had a dream where I am in anyway connected to anyone who has passed on- in fact it terrifies me. I know many people say they feel comforted after such dreams, but I felt scared. Anyone know what it could mean?
