To Say Something Nice About

All My Writing Has Been An Effort To Sort Out The Paradoxes Of My Life.

For Instance, In Group Therapy, I'll Have People Stand Up, Show Off, Give A Speech About Themselves As Though They've Just Died And Have To Give A Eulogy. Even With This Explicit Permission - Even An Order - To Say Something Nice About Themselves, This Is The Hardest Thing In The World For People To Do. They'd Rather Take Their Clothes Off.

Dreams Are The Expression Of The Unconscious While We Are Asleep.

After Sex, Men Fear Too Much Intimacy; They Want To Separate Again. Women Want To Talk, To Continue The Merging, Melting Fusion Into One. Postcoital Conversations Keep The Woman's Power Alive. Through Unconscious Severance, By Falling Asleep, The Man Regains His Self.

Separation Is Not The End Of Love; It Creates Love.
