“Frank Berliners spiritual memoir is beautifully crafted and written. It is a tale about love, and the great longing that springs from there—to learn, to grow, to be real, and to forge a genuine connection with oneself and others, with life, and with death. I highly recommend it.” RealSpiritualGrowsWrittenSpringConnectionsLongingOneselfGenuineTalesMemoirBeing RealFrank Author:John Welwood

“A relationship that has any depth and power at all will inevitably penetrate our usual shield of defenses, exposing our most tender and sensitive spots, and leaving us feeling vulnerable - literally, 'able to be wounded.' To love, in this sense, is to open ourselves to being hurt. The dream of love would have us believe that something is wrong if a relationship causes us pain. Yet trying to avoid the wound of love only creates a more permanent kind of damage. It prevents us from opening ourselves fully, and this keeps us from ever forming a deeply satisfying intimate connection.” IfsTryingBelieveKindFeelingsDreamAblePainCausesHurtConnectionsDepthLeavingDefenseWoundsOpeningSpotsVulnerablePermanentSensitiveIntimateDamageSatisfyingUsualWoundedPenetrateShieldsExposingBeing Hurt Author:John Welwood
