Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor

Would you have value?

What value would you have if you weren't him?

Tell me.

Maybe more because you probably spend a little more time with it.

My girlfriend would definitely appreciate me more.

Because you'd have time.

You wouldn't be running that wheel anymore.

You'd be a different part of you.

And then if you can master and help heal your pain from the past or your disgruntled self that, well, you know, I had this problem and now I can't use my left arm.

And so I'm going to be a miserable human being the rest of my life because my left arm doesn't work anymore.

Well, I think what we do is we recognize, first of all, the question, everybody wants to heal it.

So the way to heal it is not to get rid of it.

I cannot get rid of my trauma from the past.

My pain from the past is real and it is mine and it is expansive and it is mine and everybody has their pain from the past, their trauma.

We all have trauma.

So what do I do with that trauma?

Do I let that trauma just fester in that character to part of my brain?

And then I just look at everyone else who's not like me now and say, well, you didn't have any trauma.

You know, you're better off than I am.

You know, I start making a negative, hostile judgment about, well, this is my trauma and I want to protect it.
