If anyone in your system is struggling to understand how "things" work, then I recommend reading The Silver Boat. It's expensive for such a small book, but I think it could be helpful. If you're interested, maybe you could ask your library to get it for you. Or better yet, your T.

Destined to be a classic. The Silver Boat is a magical, beautifully illustrated fairy tale that will delight children of all ages. It describes the journey that all of us must take in order to leave our pain behind and reach the healing place of "the warm and sunny land".
Much like Dorothy in "The Wizard of Oz", this tale of empowerment teaches the lesson that the power lies within the "little girl" herself to overcome her fears, conquer the dragon, and achieve her dreams. This therapeutic metaphor, originally published in 1990, has both delighted and comforted thousands of people struggling with fears or the aftermath of abuse and trauma. Many therapists have creatively incorporated the story into individual or group sessions. The Silver Boat has been enacted by children, adolescents, and adults in psychodrama. Enjoying the more universal implications of the work, many have commented on the concepts which deal with the oneness/separateness dichotomy on a wider scale. Some people have just enjoyed reading a beautifully illustrated fantasy.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
