Virtue Is An Inner Strength. It Expands

To Be Shame-bound Means That Whenever You Feel Any Feeling, Need Or Drive, You Immediately Feel Ashamed. The Dynamic Core Of Your Human Life Is Grounded In Your Feelings, Needs And Drives. When These Are Bound By Shame, You Are Shamed To The Core.

Recovery Begins With Embracing Our Pain And Taking The Risk To Share It With Others. We Do This By Joining A Group And Talking About Our Pain.

All These Feelings Need To Be Felt. We Need To Stomp And Storm; To Sob And Cry; To Perspire And Tremble.

Healthy Shame Is An Emotion That Teaches Us About Our Limits. Like All Emotions, Shame Moves Us To Get Our Basic Needs Met.

Shame Is The Root Of All Addictions.
