ABSTRACT

We don t have to emphasize the subject I in Living as I am. Problems arise when we emphasize the subject. The clash between Understood Self by the idea and real Self is likely to move on to what is commonly called self-dissociation. What prevents this pathological phenomenon is to omit or weaken the proposed I as the principal. In that case, experienced and concrete me who lives vividly in reality, not out of ideas, functions. This I is not the Who am I when I m sad? but I can cry. I am a healthy person who lives firmly in reality without being separated from reality. Only then will we have serious thoughts and reflections on how to form a relationship? and what to do? When it comes to live like me, we should develop a program that allows us to find ourselves me in the relationship instead of putting nada at the heart of the problem. For example, rather than stipulating whether one is a child or a brother, I in the family is helping to establish a proper relationship by making them think about what kind of relationship they should have with their parents, brothers and sisters to be beneficial and happy to I and family . I think that once the relationship is healthy, what role I will play in the relationship will naturally be derived.
