             Kubler Ross And Dealing With 

           Sandy Hook  And Other Bad Events

     Some 40 years ago, Dr. Elisabeth Kubler- Ross wisely observed and described the often contradictory emotional responses to impending death.

  Denial, bargaining, anger and acceptance are crucial steps in dealing with often combustible emotions, she noted.

    I believe the emotional turmoil associated with impending death may also apply to facing painful news in life.

    For anyone trapped in an emotionally difficult situation with a  excruciatingly painful solution would often  delay action for a good while. A bad marriage or job for instance where the logical solution is the ability to face the emotionally unacceptable choice of divorce.

    We Americans may have to possibly go through the contradictory emotional responses in realizing that we coexist with a dual reality : Living a good life in a seemingly orderly  society filled with big lies and big crimes against humanity . And worse wasting innocent young lives and tax dollars to perpetuate constant fear, terror and wars.

  We will begin this process when we realize the truth -established by scientific principles- behind Sentinel events like Sandy Hook , 9/11 etc.
