Day 86 of 100: What’s our purpose in defending ourselves?
I have come to believe that being Defensive is a waste of time.
If I am wrong, I need to learn from it.
If I am right, right is it’s own defense.
So what’s the purpose of our denial?
Is it that we can’t handle the truth?
Is it that we feel we need to protect ourselves from our feelings?
Is it that we are afraid of other people’s judgments or abandonment?
"What we protect, we make Weak."
- Doc Downing, Ph.D, LMFT
Are we so weak that we need to be protected (even from ourselves)?
