If I recall, that quote was me realizing I would need at least one more worldview in the equation or mine would never get through the door (I think I was also re-reading my Bernays art).
After explaining to my psychiatrist Friday that referring to myself as an artist would be enough to trigger her, he challenged me to find a way to talk to her about the differences between anger and resentment and whether she might have some resentment she could address. Still getting the stars lined up for that one.
