From: Druout

Dear El,

I agree mostly with this, though I don't recognize myself particularly in
"effortless" or "easy going." Perhaps the difference lies in that we who
have had a relatively trouble free childhoods do not feel the need to look
over our shoulders. I don't know if this relates to whether or not our K
experiences are also more trusting and free from fear --or whether it allows
us to surrender more easily to the energy. On the other hand, I agree we
probably have not developed much in the way of survival techniques, so if K
goes awry it might be an even greater blow. Judging from the poll so far,
though, whether or not we have been abused doesn't seem to correlate with
whether or not we have problems with K (a question others have mentioned that
I neglected to ask).

Love, Hillary

 origin, regardless of how tough their current situation may be. Conversely,
 no matter how well we're doing now or how much healing we've undergone,
those
 of us who endured a painful childhood have an element of struggle or a
 sharp-edged quality in our personalities. I think an abusive background
 develops a degree of warrior energy in the psyche. We had to fight for our
 existence, for our right to be here. I feel this energy even in abuse
 survivors who adopt very optimistic life philosophies.
