It feels awful and it's shocking and it's ungluing, but the more that we face, the more that we become. That's in the data. There's a great study in the awakened brain. I referenced it by Tsai, T-S-A-I. He looks at 3000 plus vets and he showed there more trauma, the more post-traumatic growth. until we're so flooded.

I mean, just the worst of the worst that we have to have support for that post-traumatic growth. Then another scientist that's the size study, Tedeschi, looked at, well, what are the predictors of the extent to which we really do grow? How do we help ourselves grow?

And Tedeschi helped us understand that there were four ways in which we can take a really unwanted, upheaving, traumatic experience and harvest it, that very experience for growth. And one is being able to sit with a group of other people, like you said, not be at this alone. access that very experience and put it into words.

So it's not just floating around and deep and dark, but we weave it together. So other people access the experience, put it into words and share it, and then shine the light of our higher power, whether it's prayer for some people, it's some form of meditation for others, it's laying on of hands, but

When you shine the light of your higher power on that really shocking, unwanted, unforeseen moment, there's an awareness, there's an awakening. And it can be that I was held through it, carried as in your beautiful image of the footsteps. It could be that I was guided through it because in that image of the footsteps, there's a direction. There's a direction.

It could be that I realize now, God, that I was not to blame, that we both can be forgiven, that You're with me all along, but that breakthrough post-traumatic spiritual growth leaves us stronger and more resilient than if it had never happened at all, because we have built a spiritual response to suffering.

Achieving awareness versus awakening awareness is in all of us. John, every single one of us has the capacity to look at life and say, to your point of your beautiful story, okay, I have kids. I have a mortgage to pay. I've worked really hard to get to this point of building and creating and providing for my family.

So in a very good spirited way, every one of us has the capacity to think about, okay, how am I going to move ahead? How am I going to create financial stability? How am I going to cultivate being the type of person I want to be? And these are markers of growth and building and accomplishment.
