eyes opened wide: when hard feelings prevail
http://romanticeditor.blogspot.com/2012/07/violent-clash-with-my-father.html
Creative writing can be a powerful kind of listening. Tuesday, July 3, 2012. When hard feelings prevail. The Italian elderly man wore the face of an ancient patriarch as he marched out orders in his broken English. He urgently needed to renew something he no longer really needed. Carefully, he monitored every move as his middle-aged son drove him to his destination. 8220;Turn right. Not that way. Bend the wheel further or you'll hit that car. Stop in front of the yellow post. The days that followed ticke...

eyes opened wide: givers and takers
http://romanticeditor.blogspot.com/2011/03/givers-and-takers.html
Creative writing can be a powerful kind of listening. Sunday, March 13, 2011. Givers tend to fall into the hands of takers. It makes sense. Exploitative folks cannot implement their tactics on individuals similar in kind. While the strategies may vary, the one common denominator of takers fits this lamentable yet true description:.

eyes opened wide: role playing
http://romanticeditor.blogspot.com/2011/10/traumatized-child.html
Creative writing can be a powerful kind of listening. Saturday, October 22, 2011. I had the misfortune of playing the role of a supposed "wise and experienced" counselor while applying some newly learned therapeutic techniques. I felt like an oxymoron. As was my custom - when it came to dramatization - I went into a tail spin and crashed. My mind went foggy. I felt rigidly self-conscious, insecure and defeated even before I began. It was altogether disorienting. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Time i...

eyes opened wide: grief work
http://romanticeditor.blogspot.com/2011/12/grief-work.html
Creative writing can be a powerful kind of listening. Friday, December 23, 2011. People are generally threatened by emotional vulnerability. Whenever you happen to open up to others, you'll find their eyes oftentimes glaze over. This reflex is strongly aligned to society’s emotional insulation. Parental figures and authorities involuntarily mistreat us because they were mistreated by previous generations. These unresolved traumas get swept under the rug and therefore interfere with our present adult ...

eyes opened wide: admiration vs. love
http://romanticeditor.blogspot.com/2011/09/recovery-from-grandiose-personality.html
Creative writing can be a powerful kind of listening. Tuesday, September 27, 2011. Admiration vs. love. I never expected to encounter these welcomed lines by Alice Miller that mirrored the hidden motivations of my heart. The grandiose person is never really free, first, because he is excessively dependent on admiration from the object, and second, because his self-respect is dependent on qualities, functions, and achievements that can suddenly fail. So nice to hear from you! All the best,. I stumbled ont...

eyes opened wide: when dreams depart
http://romanticeditor.blogspot.com/2011/11/if-we-are-grieving-it-is-because-of-our.html
Creative writing can be a powerful kind of listening. Sunday, November 27, 2011. When it comes to traumatic events, sometimes the underlying issues are obscured even to those who experienced them. The most anyone can do is to be as objective as humanly possible, trusting he has made the best evaluation possible. Some people also inflict terror so eventually a flash of the eyes is all that is needed. While to others the list below may seem to be a collection of cold clinical data, to me each trait is a co...

eyes opened wide: house of distorted mirrors
http://romanticeditor.blogspot.com/2012/04/out-of-my-reach.html
Creative writing can be a powerful kind of listening. Sunday, April 8, 2012. House of distorted mirrors. When you believe you are undeserving. You open yourself to unsuitable company. Who hoodwink you through false assurances. These culprits may be volatile. With a persistent self-referential attitude. Sweetness, tension and acting out. Played over and over again. Like looping cassette tapes. Yet after each explosion. You get to breathe a peculiar kind of calm. At least not for another while. I have a gr...
