Fr. Nathan discusses the Compassionate Responses from The story of Don and First Responder Ralph. -No Judgment about clothing or appearance or about valuing one’s own looks.-He was allowed to be angry as deeply and for as long as he pleased.-Very little talk therapy. He couldn’t hear anything over the noise of his own red-hot anger.-Experienced a dawning; he heard us as pleasant tones and fragments of attractive conversation.-College “foolishness”: being “branded like a slave.” That no longer matters as a source of shame.-In his afterlife state, didn’t want anyone who knew him to see the ugliness of 1) his bloody, gory face, and 2) his angry rage.-He formed a new thought: What if some first-responder professional who was used to seeing bloody faces came for him, e.g. an EMT, firefighter, or police officer.-Recently “resting in peace” Ralph the First Responder is awakened by his afterlife pager and goes into action.-An escalator appears for both of them with folks at the top beckoning them to hop aboard!Connect with Father Nathan Castle, O.P. ?  http://www.nathan-castle.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/fathernathancastle Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/father_nathan_castle/?hl=en YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/c/FatherNathanGCastleOP  Listen to the podcast:https://thejoyfulfriar.buzzsprout.comApple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-joyful-friar/id1645812556Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/19OPWBDv38sn9pwSZRgqQnGoogle Podcasts https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5idXp6c3Byb3V0LmNvbS8xODkwNTE1LnJzcw Purchase books on Amazon: https://tinyurl.com/34bhp2t4                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   My Dominican brothers and I live a vow of poverty.
