"Withering Afflictions, Stabilizing steadfast Faith."
"I feel your discussion and the resonance simile illuminate the heart of therapeutic or enlightening encounter. Understanding a mechanism this way or that can be perhaps but one of many paths to caring, enabling a patient to go beyond walls, to…"
"It was good to be part of the talk and discussion. A unique experience from my kitchen in Tel Aviv as I prepare to fix our family dinne. I look forward to more !"
"Proofs perhaps are like democracy, to paraphrase Chutchil terrible until the alternatives are considered. Perhaps faith is steadfastness, to be upheld when its intentions and effects bring good. To lean on the Kalamas, perhaps the ultimate test is…"
