O.K. Let’s move on to your scripting. Please know that breaking up (with) deeply embedded Destructive, Emotion-Triggered Scripting is hard to do! . . . but, it can indeed be done! In this Step, we’re going to examine how to accomplish it.
For our study, we will focus on the two primary places from which our scripts originate: 1. our genes; and
2. our environmental adaptations.
In connection with genetics, I would like to share the following insight with you, which was formulated and written by my mom, Betty Lindner, for her documentary about my dad, “There Goes My Heart: The Jack Lindner Story”: “Some or many of our feelings, thoughts, behaviors, inclinations, and scripts are encoded in our (and our ancestors’) DNA. Therefore, we inherit these traits through our genes.” Below is an excerpt from the documentary regarding this process:
Believe it or not, there is an incredibly important “open secret” that most of us pay little or no attention to. I’m referring to a series of essential facts that affect each and every life to a considerable degree.
Metaphorically, life is a special kind of “scripted dream.” A dream in very High Definition. Our individual dreams are initiated when we are conceived; when sperm fertilizes the egg; and when the very first cell divides. Wondrously, it is then—from the highly complicated processes of combining, deleting, and recombining of DNA, RNA, genes, proteins, and the necessary chemistry—that, depending in part upon which genes are activated and which genes remain dormant along the way, our initial “personal scripts” originate, and continue to develop with each cell division.
It should be noted that the “positives” (e.g., a Mozart’s musical gifts) along with the “negatives” (e.g., “the sins of the fathers” and no less those “of the mothers”) are all incorporated into the genes of offspring during this process. However, it is only when specific genes are activated and expressed in the then current scripts of their children that the “gifts” and “sins” of the parents are actually visited upon their children, who then continue the process when they subsequently procreate.
Hence, our genes are “hand-me-downs” and “carryovers” inherited from our early forbears and direct ancestors. Thus we are never tabula rasa (a blank slate). We are, in a manner of speaking, “time travelers” and “transporters” of our personal histories (thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and scripts) from eons of yesterdays, to millions of nows, which were once millions of tomorrows.
Our scripts are also determined by what we learn and experience throughout our lives. Therefore, both heredity (our genetic endowment) and environment play major roles in our scripting.
I agree with my mom’s very astute belief that some of our scripts of behavior are inherited from our ancestors, as they are encoded in our DNA and have been passed on from generation to generation.10
The second primary means by which we derive our scripts is through life experience or learned behaviors that we develop in order to help us get through life. Ironically, these coping mechanisms that we develop in order to protect
