Dr. Edith Eger

A female voice of Viktor Frankl.

My definition of love is the ability to let go.

Don't live in the past.

You cannot change the past.

That's one thing you cannot change, is the past.

I don't live in the past.

I don't forget it or overcome it.

You go back to that place and you can do it in your office with a gestalt chair.

Put them in that chair, tie them up and beat them up.

Yeah.

How could you do this to me?

I was only eight years old, you know, and you get it out, scream it out and beat them up.

Yeah, because forgiveness has nothing to do with me forgiving you for what you did to me.

I don't have any godly power at all, but I do have a power.
