b'If there is anything we know about trauma, it\\u2019s that it depends on disintegration and isolation to do its dirty work. And if there is anything we know about its healing, it\\u2019s that the presence of others is the beginning of integration, which leads to the creation of beauty and goodness in the face of painfully broken stories. But it\\u2019s tricky: for the very thing we need the most\\u2014the presence of loving relationships\\u2014is often the context in which our traumas have initially taken place.
