"The heart can get really cold if all
you've known is winter."
Benjamin Alire Saenz
To read social histories of clients growing up within the social system, it is easily understood how early one produces a cold heart. As life unfolds with more situations of devastation, a frozen barrier of ice developed over the cold heart. This in turn forms a numbness in the body, a disconnect in communication and a rage emotionally.
Exploring the environment of non-verbal children, one realizes how an innocent child who does not know the language of anger nor the meaning of pain, simply absorbs negative vibrations into his or her understanding of the world.
The greatest deficit is believing dysfunction occurs only among the poor. Wealthy or financially secure families experience the same emotional makeup when family members experience unbalanced emotional stability. The existing hope is to unconditionally love the children until the ice melts.
