How little I know. How's that trope from #RDLaing so much less than. Rumplestiltskin himself would say don't follow me, I'm lost. LOL. I don't need hope. I don't trade in that either. But there is a glimmer of something, isn't there? We'll have to get rid of that. Whatever will the neighbors think?

'Existential phenomenology attempts to characterise the nature of a person's experience of his world and himself.'
An eternal truth, if we don't understand the other person's experience and their internal world, how can we help them heal and grow?

Heavily into a bigger rewrite of Book 5 than I expected and Ronnie Laing's words keep coming back to me, not least because his surname gave me the name of my central character, Ellen Laing. She's certainly an other like no other.

I think far too much of humanity's political, religious and cultural theory is premised on: "I'm a big unthinking baby who requires leaders". Just another opinion on the internet 🤓

‘One of the most profound encounters of my life’: could existential therapist Emmy van Deurzen change the way you think?
Her philosophical approach to therapy has become a global phenomenon, and inspired a new book. Could a session with her change Sophie McBain’s life?
