Our individual behaviors generate contexts within
which we are insecure --- and/or secure enough to be
true to ourselves and each other. True security is the
freedom to be safely vulnerable within our own communal
context.
Our communal contexts encourage and/or discourage us
to behave creatively as individuals. If our
contexts do not liberate us to fulfill our creative
potentials --- our contexts are prone to stagnate and
fail to grow to meet the challenges of changing
environments.
Often insecure people are prone to focus their
attention upon vulnerable individuals whom they find
convenient to blame, shame, and guilt --- without
publicly recognizing the ways in which blaming,
shaming and guilting engenders disintegrative
contexts --- as open and honest dialogue languishes
for lack of any encouraging context. Often the effects
upon the context (of punishments aimed at people who are
blamed, shamed and/or guilted) are overall more
negative than were the effects of the punished
"behaviors" Any communal failures to recognize, name,
describe, and deal with the alienative effects of
punishments --- is likely to come back to haunt the
community which is guilty of such failures.
