Deconstruction and Reconstruction

Deconstruction or "clearing the skeletons from your closet" as they say, is a painful process. Yet I think it leads to the road of authentic living and true happiness.

On some days, it seems easier to just shut the closet door and pretend that everything is fine. Anyway, who is to know?

To recognize the 'skeletons', acknowledge their presence and eventually deal with them ... that takes honesty and courage. The greatest enemy is ourselves.  
 
The courage to face yourself
 - that is the ultimate challenge in art and in life.
 ~  Ang Lee (Taiwanese filmmaker)
