      Pause, breathe, and reflect - what are you aware of now? Have you ever seen a quiz like this? Do you think typical schools are teaching kids the answers? Are you motivated to follow the links and learn about these items? "No" or "not now" may indicate you're wounded and controlled by a protective false self.

      Online Lesson 1 here gives perspective on why the answers here are valuable, and how to use them to improve your and your family's lives. The alternative is living in ignorance, and unintentionally promoting the effects of the lethal [wounds + unawareness] cycle.
