Turning-points


An important consideration in theodicy is the sense in which what ultimately matters is not the past, but the present and the future. That is, to reach a turning-point where you can say the worst is behind you, nothing worse can happen to you, nothing but good from here on out, as far as the eye can see. Psychologically, we are centered in the present, although our attitude and outlook is colored by the past, as well as our expectations regarding the future. What lies ahead. Looking back on suffering is very different from the experience or apprehension.
