The God Seed

This was a very busy day, which included a couple of hours of conducting group therapy for newly recovering addicts/alcoholics, very enjoyable.  During our sessions I brought up the concept that we each had contrasting parts inside us: the God or love “seed” and the selfish/self-centered “dragon”.  I pointed out that we could each make a choice, in our actions, as to which part we wanted to nourish or “feed”.  They were all quite familiar with the choice and we had a lively conversation about the different ways the choices felt and the difficulty and discipline involved in making the “right” choice.
