victimhood!

Hi Michael,

I think I essentially agree with what you say here...

I think there are two issues which may be confused....

1. Are you a victim in some sense?

2. Do you perceive yourself to be a victim?

I think these are probably two separate issues.... I think Sandy is probably talking about issue no. 1, and many others may be talking about issue no. 2.

But I fundamentally agree that if you perceive yourself to be a victim, it's a negative force which will influence your life....

This perception can rob you of your choice, in a way, because instead of seeing yourself as the one choosing your own destiny, you see it being chosen for you by others....
