| You think you’ve got it bad?
A new book by morphing.biz director, Meg Carbonatto and colleague Andrea Durrant, on resilience, will give some sobering glimpses into the misery of the human condition—and the heartwarming courage that our Kiwi heroes displayed meeting their challenges. You’ll meet:
David, an Anglican minister, who found he didn’t believe in a “normal” God anymore. Then he got cancer, and was given a 23% chance of survival. Ayan, who was escaping war-torn Somalia at age 10 when a roadside bomb killed her parents and little brother. She spent 10 years in refugee camps in neighboring Kenya. Jane, who lost her farm worth $7 million in the wake of the stockmarket crash.
How did David, Ayan, Jane, and many other resilient New Zealanders, respond to their adversities? What skills did they use in surviving these horrible life events?
Read their full stories—and how they coped. "Bouncing back downunder: how Kiwis cope with hard times" is coming out in 2008.
