I mention safety in my books from a variety of perspectives because it is a complex issue and not just a program that can be instituted and insisted upon as it is around the world.
Safety is an experience that interests everyone. We are all living human beings, and sensitive to life and death. Vulnerability makes us all interested in safety, fear for our well being and the well being of others. We know from Worldwork experience that safety is a perception that depends upon the person’s individuality, age, health, gender, sexual orientation, culture, dreams, nationality, and so forth. For example, if something is marginalized or rejected by your conscious mind, you are constantly afraid and “in danger” of a reaction from that “something” within yourself, often projected onto the outside world.
