They often persist in such contrary behavior in spite of forceful criticisms of such behaviors, and in spite of terrible consequences of the contrary behavior. They do not learn from their mistakes. The most obvious example of such behavior on the part of individuals is the behavior of the alcoholic or drug addict. Anne Wilson Schaef has provided us with an expanded intellectual framework within which to engage in criticism and self criticism. She has clarified the concept of "addiction" and "codependence" with regards to not only individuals; but also with regards to organizations and society as whole. We need a generally recognized intellectual framework within which to examine examples of our contrary behaviors; i.e., behaviors contrary to personal and communal integrity. We cannot cope with such contrary behaviors within the conceptual frameworks which lead us into them. We need to encourage people to generate criticisms and to facilitate publication of criticisms which transcend the conceptual frameworks which generate contrary behavior patterns. Yet it is those contrary behavior patterns which inhibit the intellectual recognition of such criticisms, and which inhibit the publication of such criticisms. Alternative means of recognition and publication are essential to the transcendence of contrary patterns of behavior. (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy) ==========================================================
