Lonnie and Steve:

Thank  you both for your comments.
They make me think about things I should have been thinking about all along - and, to try doing so in different ways than my usual!

Best regards,

Waldemar

My mentor and thesis advisor, Dr. Lawrence Calhoun, was one of the original founders of Post Traumatic Growth (he offered a paper on it relative to the unified system: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.researchgate.net_publication_8244481-5FThe-5Funification-5Fof-5Fpsychology-5FA-5Fnoble-5Fquest&d=DwIFAg&c=eLbWYnpnzycBCgmb7vCI4uqNEB9RSjOdn_5nBEmmeq0&r=HPo1IXYDhKClogP-UOpybo6Cfxxz-jIYBgjO2gOz4-A&m=4ykAGapQVlZCSVPzsA4MKP_iU2JLMcu0hV6s0NDUJ8U&s=Z4Cj-KiiTaeEG1vvMZYCUdIUX-EMyVtD5zdkAsOEj1U&e=). He had brilliant and fascinating things to say about the various pathways (both destructive and growth promoting) trauma took through people's lives.

Those I have known with PTSD, for example, (my nephew who passed away not long ago is one) seem to be "weathered away" if you know what I mean... like unique land formations that have gone thru a storm, and you can't put back the parts that were etched away. Again, many thanks Lonny
