Cognitive Dissonance
#1
In Psychology, cognitive dissonance is the mental stress caused by holding two conflicting or contradictory beliefs.
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.

I'm taking up cognitive dissonance again.

It's makes a great deal more sense...

Cheers!

Ay caramba! My whole life has been a chunky soup of cogdiss. I used to think it was 'cos I'm a Libran (seeing both sides of the argument and consequently being completely indecisive an' all that), but I've stopped believing in astronomy, so I'm reaching for the Bushmills. "Make mine a large one an' hold the ice".
