Emotional Signs of Father Hunger


AUTHOR’S NOTE:
Over the years, the depth of the hunger men and women feel for father is becoming more and more evident. Even those in their sixties will tell you of the hunger and longing they still feel. Oftentimes, the need is hidden, like a deep river of water flowing under the surface. The hunger may be out of sight but is never gone.

Most of these people are highly functioning members of their communities. They are respected in their relationships. They are responsible employees. Nevertheless, they obviously have unresolved pain associated with their fathers. They thirst for "father water." They have been left with a void, an injury, a thirst that only a father can quench.

You may be surprised to see the extent of your father's role in your most cherished relationships, your vocation, your satisfaction with life, and your experience of God.

Another good reading material for educational purposes and awareness.

Emotional Signs of Father Hunger

Many people have a void inside them that is due to "father hunger," and this disguised hunger has had great impact on the way they live. Do any of these statements apply to you?

  • When I think about my father I become emotional-insecure, sad, or angry.
  • When I'm with my father I don't act like myself; I'm either childish or grandiose.
  • I consider my father wonderful, but others think I'm fooling myself.
  • I feel numb toward my father.
  • I have trouble with competitiveness.
  • My motivation is poor because I feel beaten down.
  • I have difficulty establishing relationships.
  • I move too quickly into new relationships.
  • I'm confused about my identity-it's not as if my father ever made me feel good about myself.
  • I don't feel like a real man.
  • I lack confidence in my femininity.
  • I feel unattractive.
  • I feel incompetent.
  • It is difficult for me to relax.
  • I have problems with my sexuality.
  • Being assertive is hard for me.
  • People seem to feel that I violate their boundaries.
  • I'm afraid to get too close to others.
  • I fear being abandoned.
  • Authority makes me uneasy.
  • My father's criticism hurt me too much. Now I have difficulty accepting criticism.
  • God often feels a million miles away.
  • I have little interest in spirituality.
  • When my father does not provide the emotional support my mother needs, my mother unknowingly tries to get me to provide that support.
  • My father confides in me too much.
  • My father and I do not talk openly and honestly about our lives.
  • I keep trying to please everybody-especially father-types or mentors.
  • I run to things and people to nurse myself in a compulsive way.
  • I am rarely satisfied.
  • I live with a vague, diffused fearfulness.
  • My mother's boyfriend annoys me.
  • My stepfather and I do not get along very well.
  • I am a parent who worries I am repeating my father's and grandfather's mistakes.
  • Sometimes I feel like an orphan.

The conditions listed above are often associated with incomplete father relationships. The absence of a mature father-child connection creates a void in the soul, a residual "father hunger."


Father hunger is the result of receiving too little quality fathering as a child or young adult. Some argue that even grown men and women need fathers or father surrogates and that the absence of such role modeling and support is associated with less fulfillment in life. In general, father hunger results from too little intimacy between child and father.

FATHER HUNGER


AUTHOR'S NOTE:
Life seemingly distracts us. We tend to forget or be unaware of the basic experiences of our past that have shaped and now apparently control us and the way we act. Sometimes or more often than not, we fail to recognize the problem in our father relationship. We needed our fathers to be special and good, so we stuff our bad father experiences deep down inside. Father failures hurt too much to face. The mistakes fathers make may be subtle and hard to pinpoint, but they still have immense impact on the lives of their children.

So where do we start? Do you feel at a loss in your father relationship? Do you feel that something is wrong with it? Do you feel the hunger for something that your father relationship should satisfy but doesn't?

This is a good reading material that might give some light to your problem regarding your father relationship. If you can touch the father hunger in you, you will have found a reason to step up to support a young male who is starving for the kind of male acknowledgment that can fill some of the emptiness. It's never going to be as powerful as what might have gotten from his father, but it can be life saving.

FATHER HUNGER


Each of us longs for the Fathers Love & Acceptance.


The absence of a mature father-child connection creates a void in the soul, a residual “father hunger.”


Father hunger is the result of receiving too little quality fathering as a child or young adult. Some argue that even grown men and women need fathers or father surrogates and that the absence of such role modeling and support is associated with less fulfillment in life. In general, father hunger results from too little intimacy between child and father.


In contemporary psychoanalytic theory, the notion of “father hunger” has been introduced by James M. Herzog to address the unconscious longing experienced by many males and females for an involved father. According to Herzog, the father plays the intrapsychic role as the modulator of aggressive drives and fantasies. Children or adults who experience father hunger yearns for a figure that can help them formulate their response to aggression and tolerate trauma.


Herzog began by studying 18- to 28-month-old boys whose night terrors were found to be associated with the loss of their fathers through separation or divorce. He suggested that these boys needed their fathers to help manage their rapprochement-stage aggressive impulses. The absence of this paternal help led the boys to turn their aggression towards their selves and then to project it in the form of their fears at night.


Herzog continued linking aggression to father loss two years later, when he noted that children of both genders had problems modulating their aggression after they had lost their fathers through divorce. This finding led him to posit a new developmental role for the father—the regulation of aggressive drive and fantasy.


“The father wound is epidemic among us,” says Gordon Dalbey. As a result, we see unfathered men growing up armored with a counterfeit of masculinity. But until their sons face the reality of their emotional abandonment, they may never seek the healing they need.


The father-wound is most often a wound of absence–emotional as well as physical. As such, it’s harder to recognize than others.


In the souls of men, the weapon of destruction is shame. When Dad doesn’t embrace, encourage, guide, and protect him, a boy grows up thinking, “Dad doesn’t value me. I must not be worth much.” He doesn’t feel like a real man, confident that he belongs in the world, with both a destiny and the power at hand to fulfill it. He feels tremendous shame and anger at being abandoned in his deepest need.


Distrusting himself and other men, he’s easily suckered into a counterfeit masculinity, from fast sex and alcohol to isolation and violence. Hence, prisons are bulging. Yet even the average, law-abiding man today hasn’t had a father who said, “You’re my son and I love you,” or who helped him discover his unique talents and abilities. As a small boy in a large world of men, he’s imprisoned by bars of shame from father-abandonment, unable to fulfill his destiny.. He’s misfocused with his muscles, intelligence and energies destructively instead of creatively.


He doesn’t want to hide his wound; he wants to heal it. He wants to face and overcome his inadequacies, so he can fulfill his calling as a man, husband, father, worker, and citizen. He’s willing to confess, “I don’t need a beer, my boss’ approval, a sexual encounter, a gun, a race to hate, or a million dollars. I need a father!”


To break the crippling generational cycle of shame and destruction, at least two steps are necessary.


First, a man must forgive his father for wounding him. Often this happens as the man dares to see the awful brokenness in his dad which fueled the wounding. A boy cries FROM his father’s wound; dad hurts you, and you cry. But a real man cries FOR his father’s wounds, feeling his dad’s pain instead of stuffing it and acting out inappropriately.


Secondly, we men need to begin fathering ourselves through a community of support. The fatherless man today can begin to trust himself and reclaim his destiny as a man among men by getting together with other men and talking honestly about his brokenness and strengths. The shame flees when you discover you’re not alone, that we’re all in this together. The wolf loves the lone sheep.


There are 7 core issues for Father Hunger: ALL LEAD TOWARD ABANDONMENT ISSUES

1.) Divorce  2.) Death  3.) Abuse  4.) Addiction 5.) Single Mothering  6.) Traditional Fathering 7.) Adoption


Their children enter the world like tiny sponges, ready to absorb every little impression about themselves and their identity. They are unsure of who they are: Am I special? they ask. Am I valuable? Am I good? Am I merely an annoyance? Their fathers play a primary role in answering those questions.


Just what do you mean by ‘father hunger’?

By “father hunger” I mean the profound, but usually unconscious longing for affirmation and limits from male authority figures.  The most common words people use to describe their relationships with their fathers are “absence,” “sadness” and “I don’t know him.”  Men have not been given the permission or the skills to pass on who they are to their children.  We often know what makes fathers angry, but not the deep desires and dreams of their hearts, much less their loneliness and hurt.  That vacuum creates a similar emptiness in the hearts of sons and daughters.  Dad is an unnameable mystery, which only calls forth fear, doubt and sometimes endless rebellion.

THE MIRROR OF LIFE



Often, we are so stuck in our old beliefs and patterns that we aren't able to see the changes we need to make. Even when we feel frustrated about our problems, we may not recognize what we need to learn to change things. That is why we need to use the mirror of life.


Everything in our lives reflects where we are in the process of developing integration and balance. We can use everything that happens externally as a mirror to help us see the areas within us that need healing and development. Whenever we have a problem, especially a recurring or chronic problem, it is always an arrow pointing directly to some aspect of our psyche where we need more awareness.


If we accept that life is always trying to teach us exactly what we need to learn, we can view everything that happens to us as a gift. Even experiences that are uncomfortable or painful contain within them an important key to our healing, wholeness, and prosperity.


We may have difficulty understanding what the mirror of life is trying to show us, but if we sincerely ask for the learning and the gift in every experience, it will be revealed to us one way or another.


 One of the clearest reflections we have to work with is the one provided by our relationships. Everyone we attract into our life is a mirror for us in certain ways. All of our relationships -- our families, children, friends, co-workers, neighbors, pets, as well as our romantic partners -- reflect certain parts of us. How we feel with someone is usually an indication of how we feel about the parts of us that they mirror.


We all attract certain people into our life who have developed qualities opposite to the ones we are most identified with. In other words, they mirror our disowned selves, and we mirror theirs. These are often the most highly emotionally charged relationships. We either love them, hate them, or both! We feel very attracted to them, and/or very uncomfortable, judgmental, annoyed, or frustrated with them. The stronger the feelings, the more important a mirror they are for us. We have drawn them into our reality to show us something about what we need to develop in ourselves. The fact that we have such strong feelings (one way or another) toward them means that they are showing us a part of ourselves we need to acknowledge, accept, and integrate.


This does not mean we have to be with them or hold onto a harmful or inappropriate relationship. It just means that as long as they are in our lives, or even in our thoughts and feelings, we can use the relationship as a learning experience. It also does not mean we are supposed to become like them. They may carry an energy we need more of, but they may be too far to the opposite extreme, or they may express that energy in a distorted way.


Still, we can look for the positive essence in the opposite qualities they carry. For example, if you have been taught never to express any anger, you will probably at some point find yourself in relationship with a person who expresses their anger frequently and vehemently. Life is giving you a strong message that it's time for you to learn to acknowledge your own anger. It is not saying you have to become like this person and go around dumping your anger everywhere. Instead, you need to find the appropriate balance, learning how to assert yourself and stand up for yourself.


If you have strongly developed being energy but have difficulty taking action, you may find that someone important in your life is a compulsive doer who can't relax. Naturally, you don't want to go to that extreme, but this person is your teacher, to show you the energy of action that you need to develop. Of course, you are a teacher for them, as well, but it usually doesn't work very well to try to show the other person what they need to learn from you -- although we all succumb to this temptation. It works much better to concentrate on what we need to learn in the situation. Once we use the mirror to understand what we need, and actually do the work to develop a disowned self, the whole pattern of the relationship will shift.


If we are strongly identified with power, we will attract vulnerable, needy people. This mirror is reflecting our need to recognize and accept our own vulnerability. If and when we do that, the needy people in our lives will either become more empowered, or will move out of our lives. If we are overly vulnerable and disown power, we will find ourselves in a relationship with someone who uses power one way or another. We will feel overwhelmed, controlled, or victimized by them until we own our power, at which point the relationship will either dissolve or become more equal.


We often seem to gravitate toward a romantic or business partner who has an opposite approach to financial management. If the difference is not too extreme, this can be a complementary and harmonious balance in which we appreciate and learn from each other's strengths. If we are highly polarized, however, it can be painful and frustrating, leading to a great deal of conflict and stress.


Still, it is a gift -- an opportunity to recognize how identified we are with one polarity and a chance to develop the opposite energy we need. Like any relationship issue, it requires that we communicate with one another, and be willing to listen and empathize with each other's feelings and perspective. 


The topic of relationships is a complex and fascinating subject. Still, if you grasp the basic idea of how our relationships show us the next steps we need to take in our personal growth, you can begin to use your relationships as powerful guides on your path to true prosperity.

I AM ME



In all the world, there is no one else exactly like me. Everything that comes out of me is authentically me. Because I alone chose it. I own everything about me My body, my feelings, my mouth, my voice, all my actions.

Whether they be to others or to myself . I own my fantasies, My dreams, my hopes, my fears. I own all my triumphs and successes, all my failures and mistakes.

Because I own all of Me, I can become intimately acquainted with me. By so doing I can love me and be friendly with me in all my parts. I know there are aspects about myself that puzzle me, and other aspects that I do not know . But as long as I am Friendly and loving to myself, I can courageously and hopefully look for solutions to the puzzles and for ways to find out more about me.

However I look and sound, whatever I say and do, and whatever I think and feel at a given moment in time is authentically Me - If later some parts of how I looked, sounded, thought and felt turn out to be unfitting, I can discard that which is unfitting, keep the rest, and invent something new for that which I discarded.

I can see, hear, feel, think, say, and do I have the tools to survive, to be close to others, to be productive to make sense and order out of the world of people and things outside of me.

I own me, and therefore I can engineer me - I am me and I am ok.

INSPIRING QUOTE - on the MEANING OF LIFE

"Ever more people today have the means to live, but no meaning to live for." --- Viktor E. Frankl 

Tuesday, March 13, 2012

BEING THERE


       Reflection should be empowering.  It should lead us to new insights and commitments.  However, hope as we might, this is not always the case.  Hence, most oftentimes the opposite occurs.  Reflection can also sometimes immobilize us.  It continuously reminds us of the gap between our willing and wanting and our acting, our desire and drive and our performance, our calling and intention and our achievements.

      Sadly, try as we might, this gap will never be totally eradicated or closed.  We will never achieve all that we would like to do.

      Like there are two stories of our life: the public and the private.  There is the story that is known to our close kin like that of our family and our friends and the story that we embroider inside our own heads.  These two stories do not always converge.  There can be the public success and the personal inner pain.  There can be the social persona of strength and the inner persona of anxiety, vulnerability and fragility. 

     It is not easy and perhaps never will be, to integrate the two stories.  Yet we must begin to hear its tale and listen to its pain and disappointment.  Integrating the two stories will mean that both have to change.  The story of strength should thus start to reflect a new fragility and vulnerability.  The story of fear and anxiety should then start to reflect new hope and optimism.

     Thus, in our attempt to integrate these two paths, it will bring about a new sense of wholeness and well being.  For in our journey towards maturity it entails not only integrating the light but also the dark side of our story.  Success and pain, strength and vulnerability thus weave a new pattern of being that paradoxically does not diminish us, rather makes us more sensitive and thus stronger.

     There is however a downside to our quest for integration, to become spiritually attuned persons.  We can become so concerned to hear what our inner voice or what the spirit is saying that we become sometimes more concerned with only listening than with carrying out the things we feel we must do.

       Moreover, we can also become paralytic by just wanting only to hear things explicitly when more often than not the spirit only whispers embryonic ideas.  Thus, from the inner voice we oftentimes do not get fully developed plans.  More often, we just get vague intuitions and as yet unclear suggestions.

        It is important therefore, that, we are satisfied with this and thus start to find ways by which we can express these undeveloped ideas.  Hence, the movement to praxis is not from clearly developed plans.  Rather, frequently it is the movement from the hunch to try things out, to a much clearer understanding of what should we be doing and how should we do it.  We thus need to put legs to our ideas, for it is only by working things out in the real world that our idea can become clearer.  The challenge to ‘do it,’ therefore, becomes an important part of confirming our thoughts, ideas, hopes and dreams.

     For setting our hearts on something involves not only serious aspirations, but also strong determination.  It involves not only prayerful consideration, but also purposeful action.  Since we frequently fall prey in setting our hearts on that which is only a vague shadow, hence, we need to learn to make faith practical by beginning to walk in that which is not yet wholly clear.

     Why this hardship in our quest?  For the more self-reflective we are, the more aware we become of our failings and imperfections even when others think that we are doing well.  It has nothing to do with living a lie or being inconsistent.  It is rather, a recognition of our humanity and the incompleteness that we all must acknowledge, face, accept and endure.

      This recognition however, need not and should not be disempowering.  It need not make us pessimistic and skeptical.  For it can also have the opposite effects.  Thus, it can make us realize that good comes out of imperfection, strength out of weakness, and blessing out of our fragility. 

     But this can only happen when even in the midst of our quest for wholeness we can see hope in the face of our imperfections.  Then we can truly ‘be there.’

INSPIRING QUOTE - on ATTITUDE





"Promise yourself to be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.
To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet.
To make all your friends feel that there is something in them.
To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true.
To think only of the best, to work only for the best and expect only the best.
To be enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.
To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to greater achievements of the future.
To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a smile.
To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others.
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, to strong for fear and too happy to permit the presence of trouble."

AS I BEGAN TO LOVE MYSELF



As I began to love myself I found that anguish and emotional suffering
are only warning signs that I was living against my own truth.
Today, I know, this is “AUTHENTICITY”.

As I began to love myself I understood how much it can offend somebody
As I try to force my desires on this person, even though I knew the time
was not right and the person was not ready for it, and even though this
person was me. Today I call it “RESPECT”.

As I began to love myself I stopped craving for a different life,
and I could see that everything that surrounded me was inviting me to grow.
Today I call it “MATURITY”.

As I began to love myself I understood that at any circumstance,
I am in the right place at the right time, and everything happens
at the exactly right moment. So I could be calm.
Today I call it “SELF-CONFIDENCE”.

As I began to love myself I quit steeling my own time,
and I stopped designing huge projects for the future.
Today, I only do what brings me joy and happiness, things I love to do
and that make my heart cheer, and I do them in my own way and in
my own rhythm. Today I call it “SIMPLICITY”.

As I began to love myself I freed myself of anything that is no good for
my health – food, people, things, situations, and everything the drew
me down and away from myself. At first I called this attitude
a healthy egoism. Today I know it is “LOVE OF ONESELF”.

As I began to love myself I quit trying to always be right, and ever since
I was wrong less of the time. Today I discovered that is “MODESTY”.

As I began to love myself I refused to go on living in the past and worry
about the future. Now, I only live for the moment, where EVERYTHING
is happening. Today I live each day, day by day, and I call it “FULFILLMENT”.

As I began to love myself I recognized that my mind can disturb me
and it can make me sick. But As I connected it to my heart, my
mind became a valuable ally. Today I call this
connection “WISDOM OF THE HEART”.

We no longer need to fear arguments, confrontations or any kind of problems
with ourselves or others. Even stars collide, and out of their crashing
new worlds are born.Today I know THAT IS “LIFE”!
