Dear Chris,
After watching your show, I was deeply moved by what I
recognized to be a sound approach to conflict resolution; especially within
the often unnecessary and painful litigious divorce process. The devastating
impact caused by our failure as human beings to find common ground on which
to reconcile our differences has, in my opinion, added to the escalation of
violence throughout our communities and more tragically within our schools.
I truly believe that Alternative Dispute Resolution as a means for mediating
conflict within the human heart is the 'higher ground' on which
reconciliation of opposing views and healing the wounds of a fractious
society can be achieved.
In closing, I just want to say thank-you for all of the good works that you
and your colleagues are doing on behalf of Families in Transition. I was so
inspired by your program that I am now in the process of becoming a mediator
in my community.
