Sheepdog Tip of the Day, After Combat tip 93
Authors Judith Acosta and Judith Simon Prager have lead the way to a different response with their book, The Worst is Over: What to Say When Every Moment Counts. Although there is much of value in the book, for our purposes here, the title pretty much says it all. In their book Acosta and Prager tell us that: An altered state is like fertile soil. We can either plant healthy seeds that grow into fruit-producing plants, we can let the weeds overrun it, or we can let erosion wash it away in the storm. We can either say and do nothing, use our words and our presence to heal, or use our words to harm.
