They usually include: 1. Our experiences within our family/families of origin --- often with emotion-laden memories which create one kind of CONTEXT. 2. We live within conceptual CONTEXTS --- with diverse languages, words, symbols, pointers, etc. 3. We live within enduring unresolved conflicts within which we have lived our lives with our families and broader communities; including our particular CONTEXTS of contentiousness which may or may not have been named, recognized, described, and/or dealt with in any conscious ways. 4. We live within the CONTEXTS of cosmologies, myths, scriptures, commandments, laws, prescriptions, proscriptions, moral codes, parables, etc. of each person's religious background(s). 5. We live within the CONTEXTS of Nation-States and traditions of loyalty and patriotism. 6. We live within the CONTEXTS of our own educational training as regards academic disciples and/or professions. Few of us have engaged in any kind of comprehensive effort to fully integrate all of the CONTEXTS within which we live and work. Thus we are embedded in many unresolved conflicts because our many CONTEXTS do not present us a coherent overall CONTEXT. (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy) ==========================================================
