The next thing I want to discuss is what I call the "Black Hole" personality.
If you look up a "Black Hole" you notice that it is a collapsed star. The gravitational pull is so strong that not even light can escape. In the dark of space, it is uniquely camouflaged. The only real way to even notice that something is even there is to observe the light around the event horizon.
This is the type of person that constantly needs to be fed with "chaos". Chaos is part of who they are. They are at ease in this environment, and even thrive in it. In the previous blog (Human and the Human Animal, Part I) I mentioned the "Problem Seeker". It is the "chaos" this person brings to the table of the "Black Hole". Whether or not they know it, they are joined at the hip. They feed off of each other and sustain each other.
Like a Black Hole, they are hallowed out versions of the person they used to be. A deep chasm is in the place where their "heart" once used to be. This personality feeds upon everyone who attempts to get near, attempts to help, etc. The "black hole" is all take. It cannot give anything in return.
This team of the "black hole - Problem seeking" is one you need to be careful of. They have a vested interest in keeping their wounds open. They don't wish for their wounds to be healed. Any such attempts at suggesting, or even pointing out valid solutions will be met with resistance. If you know this type of personality, it is my suggestion to be very wary, and to escape while you can.
Sincerely,
David A. Kitchens
