Be Willing to Share Pain

More often than not, the most healing thing we can do with someone who is in pain, rather than trying to get rid of that pain, is to sit there and be willing to share it. –Scott Peck

Although I couldn’t name it for many years, in painting I encountered the power of the inner critic to control and limit my life. This force that counters the desire to create is within each of us. Generally the critic doesn’t appear in full force until you are in a situation where you have the opportunity to do what you want, something important, and self-chosen, something with risk.
