Growing up

Anyone who, in growing up, received the gift of a healthy moral and emotional foundation for life is lucky indeed. In the contemporary world there are so many paths to dysfunction. So many destructive messages from broken families, from religion, from media, from marketing.

The lucky, healthy young person flowers into a productive and compassionate adult.

The broken young person must struggle to find satisfaction in life. It can sometimes take a lifetime to undo a childhood. But that work itself can be an accomplishment of great worth.
