Abstract
One of the risks of loving is losing the one we love. It is easier to be the one who leaves than to be the one who is left. Those who are left often react by directing their anger inward, where it appears as depression and thoughts of suicide. We derail that process by stating, ‘‘the best revenge is a well-lived life.’’ This may encourage the client to redirect anger in more constructive pursuits.
