Out of Focus

I work in a field that renders family therapy to patients. I am sometimes astounded that many times the therapists who give advice, cannot hold their own families together. I know of two doctors that have recently seen their families fall apart. All of their knowledge and education could not prevent the downward spiral. The advice that they give to others, apparently did not apply to themselves. The heartache and devastation were the same on both sides of the fence. I guess we look at our lives as if we are looking through a camera lens. If you are too close, the picture is out of focus. If you move further away, things become clearer.
