Letter From Our President Top
Dear Members,
This time I write to you with pain and sorrow. The events
of September 11th are still on my mind and heart, and everywhere
I go I meet people who want to talk about it from emotional,
political, financial, religious, historical, cultural, etc.
standpoints. Everyone has been shaken and astonished by these
events. The dimensions of destruction may be unprecedented,
but the hate behind it is not. The full impact from this hate
is yet to be realized. In fact, psychological and emotional
reactions will soon be seen on a large scale.
This experience has a collective dimension with a series
of universal responses: pain, sorrow, despair, anger, shock,
surprise, fear, terror, hurt, hopelessness, helplessness, disgust,
disdain, and the sometimes sudden realization that we all belong
to the same world; we live on the same planet, breathe the same
air, drink the same water. Now we see the value in the message
of the ecologist who tells us, time and again, to respect nature,
that we are its caretakers. We need to respect every single
human being because each of our lives depends on the lives of
others. We, in mental health, have repeatedly said that caring
for others is as important as caring for oneself.
These events have awakened people all over the world, making
each aware, as perhaps never before, of the bounty of life and
the beauty of love; they have also demonstrated the hate that
perpetrates destructive actions against people, nature, property.
People from all over the world are consoling, embracing, supporting
each other, connecting with others both near to and distant
from them.
The wounds that these events have inflicted are frightening
for many, terrible for some, and devastating for others. Yet,
from these wounds, strength may emerge; and I do see strength
rising from ashes. The strength is now and has always been deeply
ingrained, genetically programmed in the capacity for love that
each of us experiences for each other and for humanity as a
whole.
The media have done a remarkable work in reporting the
effort, often international, of people trying to reach out to
help others in need. Never in centuries past could we have seen
these scenes from all over the world in our living rooms! So
it is on a positive note that I want to address you all. The
terrorist attack is a tragedy that has impacted all humans in
every corner of the world, but it does not kill the love that
people have for each other; actually, I believe it has enhanced
it! It has been strengthened among the ones who believe in the
fundamental respect for nature, people, and all created things.
It took centuries of effort to reach this understanding.
It comes from a reawakened and revitalized capacity for love.
Sincerely,
Erminia Scarcella
