Some of my best moments of healing came when I saw someone else do something truly courageous: like a senior colleague one day shared openly his struggles with his speech in a meeting. This forced me to think- can I / when will I emulate his example? To get out of covert 'cell', one needs lot of inner courage. This comes to us in those rare moments, when our backs are against a wall- a real crisis- when we can run away no more OR when we see a living example right in front of our eyes.. I think 'time' factor too is important. Only when we have suffered enough and seen the futility of running away, does a crisis helps us to bring out the inner resources of courage.. So, I guess SLPs could help by putting us in touch with such resources- like this conference, where one comes across such real life examples.. sachin
