I have given a lot of thought to bankruptcy in the last few days and realize that my thoughts may begin with bankruptcy information but never or hardly ever end there. It reminds me of some of the lessons I tried to teach my children about how life works, about what life is like. I would tell them that there is always both the visible and the invisible. There is both what appears and then there is the piece of the picture that is not visible but that is still very much in play. I guess I could be talking about the underlying emotional reality or I might be talking about the moral and ethical ground that belies what events and appearances stand on. And deciphering what is real and what is not is one of the dilemmas we face constantly as humans. So how does this idea of an outer reality that is tangible partnering with an underlying unseen reality relate to bankruptcy information? To me it is obvious. The underlying emotions present in the process of even thinking about bankruptcy are unseen but certainly felt strongly. Ethical and moral issues of personal and familial responsibility may have gone unattended which resulted in financial difficulty.
