I can totally relate to that. Hell, a lot of the internal trouble I had and am having - and the external troubles springing from it - are the result of myself limiting myself. And I guess that 95% of the time it sprang from the fear-based reactions I tend to elicit in other people when I express what I actually *know* and *feel*.
The fear based reactions would usually involve incessant nagging that what I'm thinking or doing is wrong or immoral, or unethical, or just *wrong*.
While in fact there's nothing immoral about using one's higher reasoning capabilities to their full extent. It's actually immoral to suppress it. I've been having this one thought occurring to me lately, and I've decided to make it my one commandment: Evolve or Die.
