To really get to know and understand yourself, you have to
dig deep. My experience is that, when you do that, the most revealing places
are the little dark corners. When you shine the flashlight on them, what you
think you see is not really what’s there. At first, you just want to turn the
light off and skidaddle. Don’t. Look it straight on. Grapple with it.
Again, in my experience, this where you find your most human
and complex self banging heads with upbringing, moral ambiguity, the fuzzy edge
where good meets evil, and forgiveness.
