Whoever is going through the crisis most
acutely, the biggest victim so to say of
it, it is the center circle. And then
you draw concentric circles around it.
And a person has to be makom as makomo,
you have to know where you are. Are you
at the center, are you the victim? Are
you once removed, twice removed, three
times removed? And then here's the most
important part. Once you can identify
where you are and what your role is, her
theory, what she says, and and it's so
powerful and so important, she says,
"Comfort in, dump out." Comfort in and
dump out. That means to say that you
don't call your child or grandchild in
Israel who's running in and out of bomb
shelters and say, "I'm so worried. I
don't know how I'm going to get through
this. I can't take this." To them you
comfort in. How are you doing? I'm in
awe of you. I can't believe it. Tell me
more. What can we do? We're going to
have wool delivered to your door. We're
going to take care of you. I don't stop
thinking about you. And then you find
somebody who's in a further out circle
than you, and you dump out. You dump
out. So, you have another person who's
living in America. You have a cousin,
you have a coworker, you have a
neighbor. You want to tell them, "I have
a child in Israel. It's just So I think
about. I'm so worried." So, a person has
to draw these concentric circles and
know who is the center circle and where
am I on those circles? And then once you
know that, you comfort in and you dump
out. Because sometimes we we do the
opposite. We sort of make it about
ourselves instead of recognizing it's
about the other person. And we shouldn't
project our experience on them. Whether
our experience is we're calm and we're
telling them, "Why are you so anxious?"
Or whether our experience is they're
calm and we're wondering, "Why aren't
you more anxious?" We shouldn't project
onto them what we're experiencing and
then it's creating some guilt or shame,
but we should understand where's our
role, where are we in this, and how can
we comfort in
while while dumping out.
