Helen Keller wrote, "Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved." Chris was living it, struggling with it, and regretting it. Chris was struggling. It wasn't hard enough fighting to heal. He was keeping secrets from everyone, including his therapist. He was having terrible nightmares, causing him to lose sleep. He was writing a new book, which put him in emotional turmoil. He had to travel to talk to his friends about what they endured as children. As if all that wasn't bad enough, a fraud of a preacher was also harassing him. He had no idea his therapist was also keeping secrets from him.
