     Healthy  growth entails  being  positively encouraged                                                            
while passing through transitional states of being true to                        
self  and others in open and honest relationships.  In the                                                      
absence   of  such   positive  encouragement  ---   it  is                                                            
difficult to be involved in healthy growth.  Such positive                                                                     
encouragement   is   often  discouraged   within  communal                             
contexts  wherein   the  traditional  emphasis   is   upon                
perfection  in   states of being;  perfection in openness;                                                             
perfection  in honesty; perfection in relationships; etc.                                                              
                                                                                                                               
     Preoccupation with proper: perfection, prescriptions,                                                                     
proscriptions,    commandments,   conformity, achievement,            
etc.     ---    inhibit positive encouragement of  healthy                                                            
growth.    Such  preoccupations undermine  healthy growth,                                                    
personal integrity,  and communal integrity;   and so they                                                                
undermine both personal and communal integrity.                                                    
                                                                                                                               
     These  descriptions  pertain  in the wide  variety of                                                                     
kinds   of  healthy  growth suggested by  combinations  of                                                                     
words in the title of this essay.    We cannot be well and                                                                     
do  well  if  we systematically  and   collusively   avoid                                    
giving  any   consideration  to  what  these  descriptions               
point  to.                                                                                                                     
                                                                                                                               
     What   we  do not ever do---often points to the  ways      
in   which   we  are  dis-eased,    ill-at-ease,     sick,                                                                     
disintegrative, contentious,    fragmentive,     coercive,                
violent    and destructive.    We  will disintegrate if we           
never  seek to recognize,  name,  describe and talk  about                                                                     
such tragic ways.
