I have been reading a great book and wanted to share a quote.
"The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen."
as a person who conducts reviews on the deaths of children, i understand that quote and every word with each word i read on client file.
recently i applied for a position at a cemetery and a collegue said "that will be quiet the dead dont speak", my response "oh yes they do". they do because of in the information we have about how, where, why and when they lived.
ross was a bit of a legend and although not physically dead yet, i agree that we all can fit the description
Kubler-Ross opened a trail. Her work was so controversial at the time - she went into a scary (for some) area and made it so much more fluid and kind. What a trail blazer !! I love her work.
