8. My client of 30 years, an amazing woman who would give Job a run for his money and yet still smiling. Her ancestral patterning and woes at every level of existence and continuous survival from a near death experience prompted me to think about the nature of the therapeutic relationship and wondering just how many therapists of every shade and hue come across something a little different? Talking to her afterwards about her memories during that experience was the application of the issue and how to deal with it when it comes your way. Gibran

An endlessly fascinating project!
