All that we are and feel we should not be -- sexual, angry,
hostile, vulnerable, masochistic, self-hating, guilty, and
even, perhaps, powerful or creative -- squats in the
doorway...refusing to let us pass until we have looked it in
the face and acknowledged our own essential humanness. No fear
is stronger than our fear of our own Shadow, and nothing is
more destructive than the defenses we adopt in order to avoid
the confrontation.
