The subject of the Shadow is a very deep and interesting subject. My Shadow is the part of me I am learning to love, forgive and push to be better. I view My Shadow as my being, giving and doing less than my best. There is often something disruptive and disconcerting about My Shadow. I have tried over the course of my academic career to move beyond, correct and redirect My Shadow. I have found this challenging at best and sometimes an exercise in futility. My Shadow has not responded well to being placed on time outs (laugh). I see My Shadow is like a muscle. I have developed the muscle of My Shadow over time. This muscle is a source of power and strength. This is power and strength I believe I will spend the rest of my life learning to channel and move in positive, uplifting and empowering directions. This is life, this is developing this powerful muscle and resource. This is My Shadow.
