“The opposite of trauma is not the absence of trauma. The opposite of trauma is order, proportion. It is everything in its place. It is one long green couch in a sunlit corner, looking like it was built for the space and waiting for you. It is an act of wilful seeing, a conscious choice about perspective.”
― The Trauma Cleaner: One Woman's Extraordinary Life in the Business of Death, Decay, and Disaster
― The Trauma Cleaner: One Woman's Extraordinary Life in the Business of Death, Decay, and Disaster
“If we all talked to each other in this way, with warm camaraderie and complete non-judgement, much pain would be spared and happiness generated.”
― The Trauma Cleaner: One Woman's Extraordinary Life in the Business of Death, Decay, and Disaster
― The Trauma Cleaner: One Woman's Extraordinary Life in the Business of Death, Decay, and Disaster
“Compassion, Brené Brown explains, is the expression of ‘a deeply held belief that we are inextricably connected to each other’ by the bonds of shared human imperfection, of suffering and of love and of goodness. If we make the vulnerable choice to connect with empathy—to be vulnerable, excruciatingly so, in order to access that in me which has suffered as you are now suffering—we bring compassion alive by communicating that bond, so others know they are never alone.”
