Don’t you just love how humorous our Shadow side can make life. Just this morning I was writing the feature article for the May newsletter. The article  happened to be on the Enneagram and how each ennatype has  shadow elements particular to their type  to integrate.

I gave a personal example of my ennatype as a Seven, sometimes referred to as the Enthusiast, Adventurer or Epicure. We seven’s are in the thinking triad. For us, our mind is both our greatest ally and greatest enemy. I wrote about how gluttony of the mind was our favorite shadow strategy. I gave some examples and went on to write about the history of the enneagram and so on. I thought it was a decent introductory article.

My editor sent it back saying that the article was way too long for the newsletter.

Oh well,  gluttony of the mind.
