%DISHONESTY ABOUT INDEPENDENCE CODEPENDENCE COMMUNE 881018

     A collection of people who are addicted to the notion
of   unlimited  personal  freedom  and  independence   are
unlikely  to  be  honest about  how  inter-dependent  they
really  are  upon  each other.  They are unlikely  to  see
clearly  their interdependence,  and so be unable to  make
decisions   wisely  in  terms  of  the  reality  of  their
interdependence.

     People   who  are  addicted  to  false   notions   of
independence   are   likely   to   become   dis-eases   in
uncomfortable   addictive  and  codependent  relationships
within  which they seek to fix their dis-ease  with  fixes
which  are  external to their root-being.  They  seek  the
"right"   fix in a magically correct solution  "sold"   by
others as the fix for their problem.

     People  who refuse to be open and honest about  their
inevitable  interdependence  cannot fix  their  dishonesty
with  technologies  and additional games  of  mutual  self
deception.   Recovery must start inside;  recovery is  not
rooted  in any external reality.  The key to  recovery  of
health is a return to integrative ideals,  attitudes,  and
procedures. This involves as an essential element a return
to  helping  people  to be open  and  honest  about  their
troubles,  failures,  fears, concerns, etc.  It involves a
revolutionary paradigm shift.

                    (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy)
