They may say that they are not afraid of anything, because they think that their defenses are good, and will be perfectly effective. Their un- WARranted self confidence may hide fears which occasion their defensive measures. Being in self-denial about emotions that motivate and guide behaviors, sets the stage for playing collusive games of mutual self deception. Such dishonesty undermines both personal and communal forms of integrity --- leading toward death in may ways. (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy) ==========================================================
