Carl Is Fascinating

What emotion was most inconvenient growing up?

What does my intensity protect me from feeling?

When I stop building or fixing, what story do I tell myself about my work?

 You don’t dislike the Super Bowl because of the game itself 

Who did I take care of before anyone took care of me?

What part of me still believes that everything could 

fall apart if I rest?

If I didn't survive by being strong, what else might have been true about me?

 “What part of me learned to confuse rest with danger—and what does it need now in order to stand down?” 

I lost my best friend yesterday.

 What part of me still carries my father’s battle, and what would it mean to lay it down? 

 Am I protecting dignity or repairing order? / dignity or moral control? /  Personal boundary or fixing the room? 

 If I stopped correcting the room, who would I be without that role? 

 Is whether you trust that which you are trying to say deserves the patience required to say it properly.
