Summer 1944

• I have lots of courage, I always feel so strong
  and as if I can bear a great deal, I feel so free
  and so young! I was glad when I first realized
  it, because I dont think I shall easily bow down
  before the blows that inevitably come to everyone
  (Frank 1993, 260).

  writing and expressing these feelings?

• Protective nature of connections was
  demonstrated to operate at all ages (Hallowell
  1999, xvi).

Dr. Hallowell, Connect

• To gain the benefits of connection, it didnt
  matter what kind of connection a person had. For
  example, you could live alone, but have frequent
  contact with friends or relatives, and be
  protected. Or you could belong to various
  voluntary organizations, but not participate in
  any religious activity, and still be protected
  the key to gaining the benefits of connection was
  to have several kinds of connections, but the
  kinds could vary from one person to the next
  (xvi).
