ABSTRACT

Imagine for a moment that someone has entered into your life making a judgement about some aspect of it – your thoughts, appearance or behaviour. How might you feel? Perhaps you will feel relieved that at last someone has acknowledged, explained or named an issue that has been troubling you for some time. Alternatively you might feel different from other people, not whole or not perfect.You might be angry at his or her impertinence.You may simply disagree and want to discuss it further. Whatever your reaction it will be unique because it will be your own.
