"We have all heard the expression, 'Hurt people hurt people.' And we all recognize how true that is. Whether we witnessed it in a bully on the playground or a CEO who takes their anger out on employees, it is not hard to see that wounds, when left unattended, do not remain contained. . . . Whether we realize it or not, we tend to transmit whatever our interior state is onto those around us. Recently, on a private retreat, I was reflecting on this insight, and I realized that if this is true, then the opposite must be true as well: Healed people heal people. Just as we transmit the brokenness that we do not face onto others, we can transmit the healing that we experience to others as well."
In a recent commentary, Mr. Matthew Trovato, OSFS, reflected on some of the ways persons whohave encountered healing (especially spiritual healing) can help others open themselves up to healing.
