This vignette from my book Thank You for Leaving Me is probably the one that I have received the most letters about.
For those that are already parted, it has softened them. It has helped them see the other person as someone who truly tried. No one gets into a relationship with someone they love and then seeks to hurt them. This exercise helps us see that there are many parts to ‘the story’ and our story may not be absolute.
Many people who pick up my book are actually married (I know, surprised me too). For them, this has helped strengthen their marriage.
The thing is, whether apart or together, peace can only come if we are willing – truly willing – to see, hear and feel the other person. And remember, being ‘right’ offers no peace. Understanding the other person however, does.
What are your thoughts? What did this bring up for you?

So true
Very healing. As she was reading I was alternately seeing things differently – there were 2 things happening simultaneously. I was listening and using the information at the same time. Quite interesting and enlightening.
True..
