Your Dark Side
Have you stared your dark side in the face and talked to it?
What is your ‘dark side’?
Best answer I can think of…
The sum of your evolutionary behaviors that have negative effects usually on others but often, in reality, on ourselves.
Society often teaches us to behave in ways that are opposite to our basic instincts. And yes we do need to find ways to override instincts, but the primary message seems to be: ‘pretend that part isn’t there’. Particularly when society gives you few or no ways of overriding the instincts. Of course that is only ourselves interpreting the world, there are always more choices than are given us.
Do you converse with your dark side? Or do you pretend its not there?
