Coping 101: One thing you who had secure or happy childhoods should understand about those of us who did not, we who control our feelings, who avoid conflicts at all costs, or seem to seek them, who are hypersensitive, self-critical, compulsive, workaholic, and above all survivors, we are not that way from perversity, and we cannot just relax and let it go. We've learned to cope in ways you never had to. - Piers Anthony

Coping 101: Everything can change in a heartbeat; it can slip away in an instant. Everything you trust and treasure. Whatever brings you comfort, comes at a terrible cost.

That's all you need, just five minutes at a time. - Shannon L. Adler

Coping 101: Forgiveness is a strange thing. It can sometimes be easier to forgive our enemies than our friends. It can be hardest of all to forgive people we love.
