There are moments in life when we are knocked off our usual
balance, our normalcy, and from that vantage point we can view life
in general, and our own lives in particular, at a different level.
This is a simple story about one person's decision to draw out the
best from a difficult experience and to use a dramatic break in the
regular routine of life as a learning experience about elevating
one's life. The story is based upon a surgical experience and a
thinker's response to it. The approach also would apply to other
experiences like losses of jobs, deaths of loved ones, burning down
of houses, spousal affairs, children's serious illnesses, economic
setbacks and any other fracture of the usual activities of life. If
the opportunity to elevate your life through creative response to
trauma comes to you, the reader, you might respond through
different creative endeavors, by painting, perhaps, or composing,
or dancing, or building things, or working, or gardening. The
message, however, is still the same: step into the experience, be
assured that there is meaning in it for you, ask what you can learn
from it, and know that your life will be deepened by both the
experience and your response to it. This is a book about responding
to unexpected, unusual, and traumatic experiences in life. Another
personal story with deep philosophical insight from Dr. Diane
Harvey, the author of DOCTOR, PATIENT, OBJECT, THING: A Story about
a Surgeon and a Teacher.
