Good day, Henry here. Projection is when we see qualities in another person who we don’t really know. What happens is that we see what we expect to see. This is most obvious when we look at people from other races or other ethnic or social groups. Projections can be both good and bad, making […]
“Look what you made me do!” From the time we’re tiny, this is a refrain that we often sing. Hello all, Henry back again today. Brothers and sisters, friends, parents, anybody, even the family dog can be blamed for making us do something we were not supposed to do. The key with this creative little […]

Henry here today. We spend a lot of time thinking, even worrying what others think of us. Who do they see when they see us? Glance at the checkout at any store and see how many magazines are focused on how we look and how to improve our looks.
We worry endlessly about how we are […]
