Our personas convince us that there is nothing that we don't know about ourselves -- that we are in fact the person we see in the mirror and believe ourselves to be. But the issue with this is that once we have bought into the story of 'this is who I am,' we shut the door on any other possibility and deny ourselves access to all of who we can be. We lose our ability to choose, because we can't do anything outside the confines of the character we're playing. The predictable persona we've constructed is now in control. We become blind to the immense possibilities for our life."

The Next Step

How do you introduce the fart into the relationship? Do you just let it slip one day and see what happens?
I have decided to lay stink bombs. While he's in another room I'll let one slip out and then walk away from the area and when he comes back in I'll see if he makes a face when he walks past that spot. I'll just see if he notices and if he does I can blame it on one of the dogs. And then, when a fart takes me by surprise one day and just pops out, he may already be used to the smell so he won't think it's THAT bad. Or he will and my little stink bombs will have done nothing. Oh well...
