No n'hi ha cap No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. Similar to Anxiety is Really Strange -- I liked this one more because it was an interesting and nuanced exploration of forgiveness in its many forms. (I'm intimately familiar with anxiety.) (  ) ktshpd | Oct 22, 2018 |  In its simplest form Forgiveness is Really Strange is a comic book about finding forgiveness for people who have harmed you. The authors and illustrator weigh the pros and cons of forgiveness and clearly believe that forgiveness is critical to heal oneself(s) and to help build a moral world. I do not believe in this basic premise. I don't think a person who has been abused or harmed has to forgive an abuser to have a fulfilling life. I do believe that a person(s) does have to come to some type of self-reconciliation and forgive themselves and work on issues of self-blame, self-worth and self-love. This is different. I have worked with sexual abuse survivors and whether they have nothing to do with their abusers, forgive them, don’t forgive him/her does not really matter. There are so many ways to have a meaningful life with a sound moral compass. I feel somewhat differently about forgiveness between countries and conflict within them. I do think that forgiveness or reconciliation is necessary to being able to work together. The trauma of war, etc. needs a full airing in structured, protected settings so people can heal together. This is not a namby-pamby concept but very challenging and hard and we know from the South African Truth and Reconciliation testimonies that outcomes are fraught and in some cases negligible. A thought-provoking comic that is fun and engaging. Concepts are clearly described I do not buy the basic premise or let’s just say that I think it whether to forgive or not is a complicated and multi-dimensional process ( ) Karen59 | Mar 2, 2018 | -ARC provided by NetGalley- I really enjoyed the creative mind this comic's illustrators have. They were so original! I can't even tell exactly why I didn't like it as much but I feel like I didn't agree with everything that has been said. It also didn't reach my heart the way I thought it would. I felt like the text was too objective for me and too metaphorical. I liked the idea of the quotes and all of them being accurately illustrated! (  ) Denicbt | Feb 5, 2018 | Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
"What is forgiveness? What enables people to forgive? Why do we even choose to forgive those who have harmed us? What can the latest psychological research tell us about the nature of forgiveness, its benefits and risks? This imaginative comic explores the key aspects of forgiveness, asking what it means to forgive and to be forgiven. Witty and intelligent, it answers questions about the health benefits and restorative potential of forgiveness and explains, in easy-to-understand terms, what happens in our brains, bodies and communities when we choose to forgive" -- No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
