Abstract
Jungian psychoanalyst Dr. David Gerbi describes the journey of his awakening to peace and reconciliation after the traumatic expulsion of his family from their home in Libya in this twopart article. The first part of this article describes his experience after his family's emigration to Rome. In the second part, he describes his return to Libya and subsequent contact with the Libyan dictator in Rome. His work demonstrates how the traumas of the past can be turned into opportunities for the future and that a condition for peace with one's enemies is making peace with one's own self.
