True baptism allows us to reframe, and contain, the reality of evil, without needing to blame anyone else, without any need for shame or vengeance. We are all in this together, and our common wound shows itself in different ways.

All great spirituality is about what we do with our pain.

Pain and suffering that are not transformed are usually projected onto others.
