The Therapist's Voice

Abstract

RECLAIMING CLOUDS OF GLORY

My wife, Bobbie, and I were sitting in the kitchen when the garbage disposal jammed. I said, “What shall I do?” She said, “Just push the reset button.” So I did, and with the push of a button, the disposal resumed, almost effortlessly. So I went to God and asked, “If you're such a great creator, why didn't you give us a reset button?” God said. “I did give you a reset button, Bernie. It's called pain and suffering.” Bernie Siegel, Love Medicine and Miracles (1986. p. 199).
