8.23-The value or non value of "Pitchin' a fit."
Why a child throwing a fit is so
normal and for an adult to pitch a fit may be quite non-productive.
1 Corinthians 13.
11 When I was a child, I talked like a
child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I
put the ways of childhood behind me.
“Most of the oversensitivity and hurt feelings
come from that part of the self that tends to respond as we did when we were
powerless children. To this child-self
all personal affronts seem disproportionately large. You can get in touch with this helpless child’s
voice in your own personality through free-intuitive writing or cathartic
writing, as Marion Milner did in her diary;
‘I must make a scene, must be
miserable, when he says that, I’ll cry, I mustn’t let him know it’s better, I
won’t say I’m happy.’”
