I’ll add that I do happen to come at this from a place of faith that all things can be used for good, which actually does NOT support “everything happens for a reason” thinking. (For more on that, I would refer to the amazing theologian Kate Bowler’s book called “Everything Happens for a Reason and Other Lies I’ve Loved.”)

excellent point! and great rec!
