During life, everyone experiences difficult struggles and pain. The relief from this pain can come when either we recognize that we are only human and make an appropriate change for the better or when another person helps us recognize it and encourages us to make that change. These two phenomena are called self compassion and compassion and are great powers that people possess to make life better. They are the first steps to take towards a healing process that results in one being able to enjoy and share all the wondrous experiences that life has to offer.

Autorenporträt
A Little About Me: I grew up on a small family farm in rural Gorham, Maine in the 1970's. Farm life instilled in me a strong sense of values, including resilience, responsibility, and the necessity of team-work. When I graduated high school, I attended Worcester Polytechnic Institute in Massachusetts, starting off in mechanical engineering before switching to physics, and graduating with a Bachelor of Science in 1991. From there, I went to Lehigh University in Pennsylvania, earning my masters and finally a PhD in physics in 1998 with my dissertation "An Optical and Magnetic Resonance Study of Point Defects in Silicon, Diamond, and Aluminum Nitride." I have, over the course of my career, put those degrees to good use at various high-tech companies including a five-year stint at the Bell Labs Division of Lucent Technologies.
