Bless-ed?

One psychologist's beatitudes:

Blessed are the scared in spirit; they are protecting their life force.
Blessed are the dependent: they have not become cynical, or given up on love.
Blessed are the depressed: they shall learn to relish the anger that shall heal them.
Blessed are the narcissists: they are holding their selves together against all odds.
Blessed are the whiners; they have not given up on communicating their pain.

My comment: the point is that inside every symptom of disease there is a
creative potential for life trying to get out. I think Jesus saw that tiny seed of health
in everyone he met. So can we.
