My oh my... or my oh you or you oh you or .. Oh us

I forgot an old trick, well actually a young trick for me, i learnt from Byron katie: turn your loaded statement around a few times. It's amazing the truth it produces: "you only contact me when you need something from me", becomes: _I_ only contact you when i need something from you! or you should contact me when you need something from me. Or more subtle, i only contact you when i need something from myself, or i should contact you when you need something from me. And it can go more subtle still. And the reason for this magick is merely because our assumption that i and you are separate is somewhat erroneous ;)
