LoPiccolo Throw-Back

Dear Linda,

We must face our own ugliness. We often must become painfully aware of the unworkability of a pattern before we are willing to give it up. It often seems, in fact , that our lives get worse rather than better when we begin to work deeply on ourselves. Life doesn't actually get worse; it's just that we feel our own transgressions more because we are no longer anesthetized by unconsciouness.

(from A Course in Miracles)

I mean I'm just sayin...
