And imagine if, along with confessing our sins, we confessed or named our hurts, the places where others have wounded us, so that we could process our pain and then respond in a way that doesn’t give in to resentment or revenge.

The quest for that Truth is the summum bonum of life.

They refuse to admit that they may need the help of friends, doctor, minister, or even God.
