Unveiling the Power of Selfishness: Kerry Docherty’s Radical Journey to Truth and Liberation
Her husband accuses Docherty of not being fully invested in the family brand. “You just do what you want,” he tells her. When she asks him why he doesn’t do what he wants, he replies, “Because I’m not selfish.”
And there it is. An accusation. A word that is easily used to disparage a woman who goes after her true desires, while a different word might be used to describe such a man —a mbitious maybe, in the best sense of the word. That word introduces one of the threads in this book and asks us to consider what and whom we value and why. What determines a person’s worth? Is there one skill set which is more deserving of reward, praise, and recognition above others? It explores what is worth standing up for and speaking out against.
