Major signs of sickness include being unable to talk openly and honestly with those who are nearest and dearest to us regarding: Our greatest joys and pleasures. The personal relationships which mean the most to us. Our dearest hopes and desires. Our deepest fears and anxieties. Our greatest frustrations. The sources of our most healthy pride. Our most integrative connections with others. The people who we most admire and want to be with. Instances where we are required to be dishonest. Any religion, organization, institution, ideal, value or tradition which systematically ignores the above signs of sickness is itself sick and is contributing to personal and communal disintegration. It important that we be able to recognize, name, describe and talk about signs of sickness of various kinds. Any religion, organization, institution, ideal, value or tradition which systematically ignores the above signs of sickness is itself contributing to personal and communal disintegration and probably is involved in collusive games of mutual self deception in the manner of addicts and their codependent supporters. Recovery from such sickness is impossible in the absence of honesty about the signs of systemic sickness. (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy) ==========================================================
