“When I began this process I had no idea what to expect. The power of seeing my resistance, my victim, my heavy baggage was overwhelming. I tell you, I have "victim" down to a T. It has been my finest creation. I am the master producer and am up for a cosmic Oscar! I may also get best supporting role for "lack of worthiness" and "biggest loser".
You know, in my mind, I knew all this stuff. I could spout it; I could banter it; I could spend another ten years in therapy regurgitating it. BUT NOTHING on this planet prepared me for the feelings that I explored on Avatar. For the first time I was able to talk about a painful experience that always brought me to tears. Now, the emotional charge is gone.
I saw places in my life where I believed that loving someone had to be accompanied with pain and hurt. I saw places where my irritability was close to the surface most of the time, and very easily accessed. (And I thought I was a patient, benevolent, loving soul.) My mask came off and with much patience from my master and the Avatar staff, I fell into my essence!
