Compartmenting subjects is completely understandable.
In the last analysis none of us really wishes or wants to digest the indigestible.
But this is exactly what we must do if we are to have any meaningful impact on our world as it is currently configured.
I'm as sorry about this as you are.

Hey Linda, good to see you. I hope you are well.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
