My Therapist

I spent one day this weekend with my therapist.  It was in a group and most voices had their own agenda and characteristics.  There was the pessimist guy who could only express negative things.  There was the party guy that only had having a good time.  There was the confused guy who wasn't sure what was happening at all.  There was the focused guy that knew what he wanted and how he was going to get what he wanted. There was the coward who didn't want to deal with anything. There was the adventurer who was not interested in the mundane things in his life and only wanted to pursue new adventures at the expense of everything else.   There was the spiritual guy who was  interested in a higher level of thought and mastery and how to achieve it. 

The problem was all these guys were talking at the same time.  It was very confusing because these thoughts were going in separate directions. None of the guys had the same goals.  There was a lot of  arguing and someone was always trying to win out with their point of view. 

The therapist did not say anything, just was there to be a support for all the guys. The point of the session was for one of the guys to convince the others that what he wanted was what was best for all of them.  No one voice won out but every time I am in a therapy session the spiritual guy becomes more and more convincing.
