Bishop Doctor Roger Ball, I love the questions for reflection you pose for us to think about concerning ourselves and others throughout your book THE TIES THAT BIND AND BRUISE. As we go along day to day problem solving and troubleshooting in how best should we handle all kinds of situations and personality styles/types, we often use taught and personally accepted modes of engagement, whether it is detrimental to us personally or to our family members and friends. However, in an approach to healing old wounds, you challenge us to ask ourselves some soul-searching things such as, “1. What would it take for you to acknowledge to your family that some decisions that you made did not serve them well?2. How might they respond to such an acknowledgement?” You go further for us to think on consequences of this sort of acknowledgment and how we might prepare to engage others in these types of conversations. These kinds of conversations, in addition to discussing those decisions we made and acted on that actually served our families very well, should be discussed periodically. I’m enjoying the substance of this book, especially the psychological content!!!??????❤️❤️❤️??????
