"As therapists, survivors, allies, or simply caring humans, it
is essential to contradict deconstructive ideas; we must searh for
message that reflect the reality of human strength, caring,
resilience, courage, creativity and love. I''m not suggesting
denial; we cannot ignore grim realities of life. But there is far
more human existence than unhappiness. The world is richly
beautiful, infinitely diverse--and so are we."
